Geometry & Calligraphy

The Iranian American Community Center (IACC), Pars Place is holding its first art show at its new location with the exhibit, Geometry & Calligraphy. As
Iranian art is so rich with both geometry as well as calligraphy, we are interested to see how contemporary artists can invoke these elements and produce interesting modern concepts and artwork. Geometric patterns which also include calligraphy are the pinnacle of Persian art. Their abstract design due to their aniconic quality have adorned architecture and monuments throughout history and have been used as decorative elements on objects and art pieces.This exhibition will strive to highlight the importance and the harmonious play between geometric shapes and calligraphic forms.
