lovely, lovely…….I wish I could visit this exhibition
This looks like a great exhibition.
I’m not sure “contemporary” is the right word, as almost all the artists are dead and most of the works date from several decades ago. I think “Twentieth Century” would be more accurate.
But they are all top class works.
Great information! I’ve been looking for something like this for a while now. Thanks!
Keep posting stuff like this i really like it
Thanks for taking us along on a tour of the art museum exhibit! Your photos are great – they’ll be in a museum someday too I guess!
It is really fantastic to see this in Internet from your museum. Congratulation! The best wishes from Germany to Iran
Is it ok to take pictures in a Gallery in Iran?
It depends on the gallery rules or the exhibition holder. In this gallery of Tehran MOCA, you were not allowed to take photos. I could coz I am a photojournalist.
