The Changing Past is an exhibition by Ali Banisadr that is on show at the Victoria Miro Gallery from 11 October to 11 November.

The Changing Past

The exhibition represents the artist’s first solo exhibition at the gallery, and consists of works created over the past two years.

Banisadr’s art combines references to Persian miniature tradition, Abstract Expressionism, Dutch masters, Venetian Renaissance and Surrealism on a single canvas. He weaves together the history of art and our own times in his works, inviting us to reimagine the present through the lens of the past.
