Join us tomorrow 7 pm (CET) ✨✨✨

Ihre erste Galerie hat Anahita Sadighi gegründet, als sie gerade einmal 26. war. Von japanischen Holzschnitten und Islamischer Kunst bis zu Chinesischen Möbeln, liegt der Fokus von @anahita.arts.of.asia auf antiker Kunst Vorderasiens und des ostasiatischen Kulturraums.

Neben dem Kunsthandel nutzt Anahita ihre Galerie aber auch als Plattform, um interkulturelle Dialoge zu eröffnen. Mit spannenden Formaten wie Poetry Nights für klassische persische und arabische Lyrik setzt sie nicht nur einen Fokus auf Neuinterpretationen klassischer Dichtung, sondern gleichzeitig auch auf starke Frauenstimmen.

Die Jungen Meister:innen sprechen mit Anahita am 23.3. im Rahmen der Talkreihe #CouchKultur wie sich der Kunstmarkt aktuell verändert. Kostenlose Tickets für den Galerist Talk könnt ihr über den link in unserer vio nd via Evenbrite buchen.

Sheema Kermani - a force smashing the patriarchy with dance | Cutacut

“The discipline of the mind and body and the immense joy which comes with the freeing of the physical form is so incredible. I realized this and decided that in this very rigid and patriarchal society, dance gives me the greatest freedom to not only express but to maintain my body and soul together – to keep my sanity!” 💃🏽✨💪🏽

With no support from the state to support the art form, Sheema Kermani fights to empower women to accept themselves for their passion to dance
