Biography
Houman Mortazavi is a multidisciplinary artist who belongs to Iran's first, post-revolution generation of artists. As such, his body of work can be viewed as a documentation of contemporary Iranian art. Using all or any media suitable to his means, his art reflects this aesthetic and echoes the same sense of unease and insecurity, which has become the trademark of the new millennia.
His latest solo Boxes was exhibited in Assar Art Gallery, Tehran (2008). He also recently co-curated 12 Cubed at the Aun Art Gallery in Tehran (2010).
This person is part of Sharjah Biennial 10
