SOUTHWEST ASIA:
Tanavoli: Statues of "Nil" Contradict Western Understanding
TEHRAN July 3 (MNA) -– The twist word of "nil" is derived from socio-political issues that Parviz Tanavoli, the Iranian sculptor, has applied in his works associated with mystery.
Tanavoli feels that his statues of "nil" are symbols and signs of life in the Iranian mysticism and do not bear any relationship with despair and hopelessness.
The 67-year-old Tanavoli, creating works entitled: "nil" which from the viewpoint of form, concept and style are purely Iranian, started his profession in early 1970's."
