This exhibition showcases eighteen large-format photographs by Shirana Shahbazi, exploring the evolution of an image from hyper-realistic imitation to geometric abstraction. The collection combines color and black-and-white still life images with portraits and landscapes, drawing inspiration from 17th-century Dutch still life art.
The exhibition 'Shirana Shahbazi: Then Again' presents eighteen mostly large-format photographs by the artist Shirana Shahbazi, who was born in Tehran in 1974 and is based in Zurich. Organized in cooperation with Fotomuseum Winterthur, the exhibition delves into Shahbazi's artistic journey, which critically examines the transformation of an image. Recently, the artist has synthesized color and black-and-white still life images, inspired by Dutch masters and featuring elements like flowers and natural products, with her earlier series of portraits and landscapes. Through this juxtaposition, Shahbazi expressively illustrates the path of a picture from hyper-realistic imitation of reality to geometric abstraction and non-topicality, offering a unique perspective on conceptual photography.
