Finances
by Mike. on Mon May 24, 2010 04:49 AM PDTMost artists do struggle financially. If she keeps at it she will eventually see this as a thing of the past. I am sure she has more money now than she ever dreamed of but by today's standards she is still poor.
All the bells and whistles of a real casino can be found at this etudes and the casino games offer the greatest payouts around.

I was not sure what Negin
by kombizz on Sat May 22, 2010 01:06 AM PDTI was not sure what Negin tried to tell her viewers. At least I was confused.
The only matter that made me uneasy was the waste of materials in showing her work. I wonder who paid for all of these resources? Was she sponsored by a private person/or organization/ or were all paid from her own pocket.
I wish I had a fraction of Negin's budget, then I could show all of my photography materials over thousand to the public. - I guess the LIFE is not fair!
Chauvinistic Circuitry Jolts
by Amir Normandi on Fri May 21, 2010 11:44 AM PDTThis exhibit is a multi dimensional re-exploration of a complex matter.
Negin Vaziri succeeded in causing jolts in some chauvinistic circuits.
Nice work

The Iranian Woman
by Peykan on Fri May 21, 2010 01:21 AM PDTTo a naive outsider observer, the Iranian society is complex, unpredictable and full of contrasts. The Iranian woman is doubly enigmatic and this artist is successful in depicting this complexity.
There is a reason why some works of Art are not seen online
by ramintork on Thu May 20, 2010 04:09 PM PDTI can't see
by Marjaneh on Thu May 20, 2010 04:11 PM PDTI can't see the work and the show, because the photos that I did open were nearly all blurred. So I gave up.

The medium is theater
by Nazy Kaviani on Thu May 20, 2010 04:00 PM PDTI went to see Negin Vaziri's installations in San Francisco last weekend. Her art is impressive and very effective--by the time you leave, you have heard her message loud and clear. The installations have visual pieces, theater set elements, actors, and background sound as their components.
Her installation "Crushing Stones" looks at stoning of women. I felt the vulnerability and finality which the artist had tried to convey. The installation called "Eternity Woman," pictures of which you see with the two women, one naked and the other in hejab, was very engaging. The naked woman who receives "colors" is the embodiment of the balck-clad woman's dreams for herself, for life. The total effect is remarkable. The third installation, "Veil is Obligatory," had several contradicting elements such as place and time and images which were meaningful to me. All viewers were asked to wear hejab before entering this installation; the reactions were very interesting.
I thoroughly enjoyed the exhibition. Chatting with Negin afterward, she told me that she had studied theater (drama) in Tehran before moving to Venice. It made perfectly good sense then to see how the converging point of her art has become the theater, the play.
I am grateful to Negin and other young Iranian artists who devotedly tour and take their art around to show it to Iranian and non-Iranian audiences with the aim to increase awareness about Iran and Iranian women. I wish Negin good luck in her future endeavors and hope to see her work in the Bay Area again.
Very dramatic

"poor" art student needing money. That's it, she's rich now!
by Anonymouse on Thu May 20, 2010 08:19 AM PDTEverything is sacred.
I am wondering...
by Midwesty on Thu May 20, 2010 05:38 AM PDTIf the human subject that the "ARTIST" abused is a paid model or a poor art student needing money?
Why didn't the "Artist" use herself to create her own art work?
But to her credit, aside from degrading human usage as a direct art instrument, I very much liked the idea of white gravels spread out in front of the displays.
I think the white gravels would have much better lasting impression on the visitors than a naked body of a young girl for the leering latte sipping skunks.
