The title After Party refers to events that transpired after The Iranian Revolution. Artworks in the exhibition were created by artists born in Iran after 1979. The revolution started with a significant amount of excitement. However, many changes in a relatively short period of time have shaped a complex post revolutionary experience. Some of the artists grew up during the eight year-long Iran Iraq war while others have memories of immigration and dislocation. Then there is the hopeful and rebellious new internet generation - the Iranian millennials that the world has yet to see. Fouladi Projects gallery was pleased to present a group exhibition of thoughtful and vibrant artwork influenced by a nation that - because of regime change and sanctions - has been hidden away from the rest of the world for many years.
