Parvaneh Etemadi , a pioneering lady of Iranian painting, passed away about two weeks ago at the age of 77. She had a very minimal and unique approach to painting, and her works were highly praised and appreciated both artistically and within the art market. On this occasion, a fascinating and interesting painting by this artist from the Raha Gallery Collection is analyzed and reviewed.
This work is one of the most outstanding creations by the late Jafar Rouhbakhsh, preserved in the Middle East collection of Raha Gallery. It presents a warm, soothing, and simultaneously mysterious world of squares.
Darroudi's paintings were heavily affected by emotions, nature, light, and mystical waves, and this painting falls into that category.
Ehsai not only provided a unique Lily painting based on his specialization, handwriting, but also used dynamic and abstract artistic expression to embody life, movement, and spiritual transformation. His work celebrates handwriting in relation to nature while also evoking a sense of balance between stability and change, permanence and metamorphosis, based on the contrast between the vitality of flowers and immobility of pedicles. The Raha Gallery has his specific “Lily” in its collection.
Reza Derakshani's piece “They Hunt Turquoise, They Hunt Blue, They Hunt the Pink,” housed in the Raha Gallery collection, exemplifies the vibrancy of Iranian history and culture; a culture that continues to evolve and change in spite of its ups and downs. Derakshani has managed to achieve a contemporary portrayal of Iranian history in this work of art.
