Dynamic works that explore the representations of feminine and masculine in Islamic culture

Iranian American artist Shirin Neshat (born 1957) creates lyrical narratives and politically loaded visions that question the themes of power, religion, race and the relationship between past and present, east and west, individual and collective. This volume spans the artist's more than 30-year career, with almost 200 photographs and 10 video installations, collected by many of the world's most important museums. Neshat interprets the history and present of her birth country from the female perspective: from her debut in the 1990s with the Women of Allah series, comprising photographs of women whose bodies are inscribed with poetic calligraphy, to The Fury (2022), a video installation that anticipates the Woman, Life, Freedom movement. Neshat goes beyond the theme of gender to use male-female dualism as a starting point for exploring the tension between belonging and exile, sanity and insanity, dream and reality.
