Summary: Published on the occasion of the first museum survey of mirror works and drawings by Iranian artist Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian, held at the Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art, this catalogue offers a critical and art historical view on a singular body of work produced over a career of more than 40 years. According to curator Suzanne Cotter, Her history, like so many artists from Iran and the broader Middle East, is one of starts and ruptures. Although the artist spent much of her life in North America, her formal language was shaped and nourished by the traditions of Iran, allowing her oeuvre to form connections outside the dialectic of East and West.
