Through manipulating the techniques of traditional Iranian art, the artists created their own form of contemporary art giving birth to an amazing presentation which combines the influences of Persian poetry, Iranian/Islamic architecture, Iran’s landscapes, and calligraphy.

Thus, the exhibition contains different types of medium and materials like steel, fibreglass, gold leaf, oil, and acrylic paint colours.

Iran’s art and culture reflect a 5,000year-old civilization that has been shaped by diverse culture and has resulted in various art forms; paintings, miniatures, woven rugs, pottery, ceramics, poetry, music, calligraphy to name a few.

Among the special pieces, the “GOD EYE” will be the highlight of the exhibition, a triptych work from the hands of the 39-year-old artist Shahriar Ahmadi who was the only artist present at the opening of the gallery.

This way, through the influence of abstract expressionist, he has created a form of art that is purely formatic and expresses poetic concepts. He spontaneously uses a variety of colour pallets and repeatedly paints layers of colour on top of the other.

Furthermore, the texture of the painting is progressively shaped to bring the figures on the canvases to the limits of abstraction and exaggeration. In this painting, the artist describes the passage of the human from the material world to the outer and beyond.

The three frames represent the three worlds of transition, before, during and after the human’s inner world becomes united with the universe closing with the blue chosen by Shahriar to represent the sky.

Over 250 guests from Marbella’s high society as well as important guests from the Art industry of Marbella attended the opening party, amongst among which we could fin the iconic Hubertus Hohenlohe and his wife Simona Gandolfi who were able to appreciate the magnificent artwork on display while enjoying the beautiful sounds of a harpist.
