| Iranian artist Maryam Najd, born in 1965, works in both abstract and figurative as she refuses strict dichotomies. The Antwerp-based artist, a graduate of the University of Tehran, is fascinated by the passage between reality and imagination. In Maryam Najd‘s view illusions are necessary to unveil some of the deeper, more emotional dimensions of art. This involves the appearance and immediate vanishing of items, such as her painting „Video Obscene II“ from 2007. A work of art in the anti-Cartesian tradition that allows the bringing together of body and mind, fragments of reality and imagination and past and future. artwork „Video Obscene II“, 2007 oil on canvas 75 x110cm Courtesy private collector contact Crown Gallery, Brussels www.crowngallery.be |
