The title After Party refers to events that transpired after The Iranian Revolution.
Artworks in the exhibition were created by artists born in Iran after 1979.
The revolution started with a significant amount of excitement. However, many
changes in a relatively short period of time have shaped a complex post
revolutionary experience. Some of the artists grew up during the eight year-long
Iran Iraq war while others have memories of immigration and dislocation. Then
there are the hopeful and rebellious new internet generation - the Iranian
millennials that the world has yet to see.
