"#ShirinNeshat's Women Without Men is an adaptation of Shahrnush Parsipur's magic realist novel of the same name...chronicles the intertwining lives of 4 Iranian women during the summer of the 1953 coup d état, a cataclysmic moment in history when an American led, British backed mission led to the over throw of Prime Minister and reinstalled the Shah to power."
I found the work of Neshat via her collaboration with musician Sussan Deyhim.

... und dieser Schnappschuss von der großartigen Fotografin gelang mir auch noch kurz vor ihrer Ansprache...

Die Eröffnungsveranstaltung wurde noch von der stimmgewaltigen kurdischen Sängerin #HaniMojtahedy mit einer beeindruckenden Performance gekrönt.

Die Videoinstallation stellt auf zwei Leinwänden Täter und Opfer gegenüber. Es geht sehr unter die Haut, wenn man beobachten muss, wie eine offenbar gefolterte, misshandelte Frau fast nackt vor Soldaten tanzen muss, die sie in einem großen Raum umringen.

Die heutige Ausstellungseröffnung von THE FURY war ein echtes Erlebnis. Die iranische Fotografin und Filmemacherin Shirin Neshat thematisiert sexuell ausgebeutete weibliche politische Gefangenen im Iran.
Die Schwarzweiß-Fotos sind von einer wirklich beklemmenden Intensität.

#ShirinNeshat
I admire the work of the Iranian born visual artist, #ShirinNeshat. Her use of Persian calligraphy & enigmatic b&w images convey the disparity & distance btwn the sexes in the Islamic world. Women Without Men, her first narrative feature, falls somewhere btwn an allegory & straight historical account of 1953 Iran. It tells entwined stories of 4 women. The magic realism of the source material befits well w/ Neshat's style. Visually, the film has some very powerful, stunning moments. #iran #film
