At Haft Samar gallery
(Motahari
Ave., Koheh Nor St., 5th Alley No. 25.
Tel. 88731403), I usually find some artists, unknown to me, who have depth and
are intense artists. This time I
saw the print works of Homayoun Mosavie.
As I am writing this I am looking at
the notes that I took and I see I’ve written: deep, sad, very male, and cold,
pained which touches you out of your control. As I was looking at his works,
siya-ghalam, xylography/linocut and saw the deep sadness and pain therein, I
thought to myself how lucky I am and thanked God in my heart.
He told me that there is
something in him that needs to be expressed and share his view of life with
others. I just wish Mr Mosavie was
less shy as an artist. I look
forward to his future and hopefully happier ones. I have a few pictures here to share with
you including his picture.
By the way, thanks to Elahe
