Join ArtTable for a visit to Shirin Neshat: I Will Greet the Sun Again, the largest exhibition to date of the artist’s approximately 30-year career. This will not be a curator-led walk-though, but an opportunity to experience with colleagues the exhibition and its plethora of time-consuming video works, which can be viewed at will. For those who are interested in discussing the exhibition after the visit, sign up to attend the optional, self-pay lunch or coffee at Vespaio opposite the museum, beginning at 1:00.
Taking its title from a poem by Iranian poet Forugh Farrokhzad, I Will Greet the Sun Again presents 230 photographs and eight video works. The retrospective offers a rare glimpse into the evolution of Neshat’s artistic journey as she explores topics of exile, displacement, and identity with beauty, dynamic formal invention, and poetic grace.
Beginning with her early photograph series, Women of Allah, the exhibition features iconic video works such as Rapture, Turbulent, and Passage, monumental photography installations including The Book of Kings and The Home of My Eyes, and Land of Dreams, a new, ambitious work encompassing a body of photographs and two immersive videos that will make its global debut in the exhibition.
Admission covers the museum’s per person change for a group visit.
