Ramin Haerizadeh, Rokni Haerizadeh and Hasem Rahmanian @ CALLICOON FINE ART

Callicoon Fine Arts is pleased to present: 
"I won't wait for grey hairs and worldly cares to soften my views"
 the first exhibition in the United States by Dubai based artists,
Ramin Haerizadeh, Rokni Haerizadeh and Hasem Rahmanian.
The three have become known for their satirical approach to 
contemporary politics. 


49 Delancey street, NYC 


The work builds up immersive layers of environments
that blur the lines between their individual artistic practices,
even while maintaining their own distinct identities. 


Over the course of a multi-week installation the artists
transform the gallery into an extension of their shared home
and work spaces of their studios.


The elasticity of these categories is furthered with the
inclusion of works by other artists in the exhibition.


Be it from Iran of their origin, or from aspects of American
and European culture and art history, the artists gather allusions
in a playful and subversive activity.


\
The extraordinary Zanni trickster of Commedia dell'arte, 
for example, or the friends and acquaintances that contribute
to their daily life, all become a point of contact from which the
trio develop their ongoing process.
