In the era in which architecture is presented always more as self-referential, the TMOCA (Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art) offers four different viewpoints with this exhibition organized by the Faiznia Family Foundation:
- Faryar Javaherian’s contribution “Architecture at TMOCA: the museum and the permanent collection” shows the architecture of the construction of the museum and the architecture works that it presents, a tight bond between container and content. Parviz Kalantari’s works on mud and straw architectures of Kashan desert cities are very significant.
- Felice Ardito’s artistic installation “NAKOJAABAD” (Nowhereland-populated or “the invisible cities”) is the poetic point of view of the artist about the cities life, their transformation in time, and the result they have on their inhabitants, “because – as Ardito says- it is the city that makes the people!”. The project includes the realization of two “Arches of Peace”, one in Iran and the other one in Italy.
-Amir Anoushfar presents the renovated historical buildings of Kashan: the architecture of the past that suits the present.
-Cultural Heritage of East Azarbaijan presents “Tabriz Bazar”: Architecture made by people for people.
Free workshops for children about the exhibition themes are organized during the running period of the exhibition: “fff and Cenzino for Kids”.
