Iranian artist’s work to go under hammer at Rosebery’s London
The upcoming Rosebery’s London auction, titled ‘Islamic Art,’ will feature modern and contemporary pieces from Iran, Kuwait, Iraq, Tunisia, Algeria, and Egypt, and will take place on October 2, 2024, ILNA wrote.
Amani’s works have previously been sold at auctions in the Netherlands, Dubai, and London, and have been exhibited at museums in Los Angeles, Munich, Doha, and the US.
In 2021, Amani registered the art of calligraphy on the National Heritage List and was recognized as a calligraphy revivalist. Born in Lorestan, Amani holds a Ph.D. in Islamic Art History (Middle East) and has completed advanced calligraphy courses under Master Mo’in Al-Kitab Esfahani.
Amani’s works have been showcased in over 40 group and solo exhibitions in Iran and abroad, and he has held calligraphy workshops in Turkey, London, Lithuania, and Germany. His art has been reviewed by critics, including Edward Lucie-Smith. Amani’s style, which blends painting, photography, illustration, and installation, sometimes overlaps with environmental and performance art. His method has been dubbed “process art” and “post-pop.”
