Green is the color of hope. Green
is the color of Islam. And green was the symbol of recognition among the
supporters of presidential candidate Mir-Hossein Mousavi, who became the
symbolic figure of the Green Revolution. The presidential elections on June
12th, 2009 were supposed to bring about a change, but contrary to all
expectations the ultra-conservative populist Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was confirmed
in office. As clear as was the result, as loud and justified were the
accusations of vote-rigging. The on-going “Where is my vote?” protest
demonstrations were again and again worn down and broken up with brutal attacks
by government militia. Images taken from private persons with their cell phones
or cameras bear witness to this excessive violence: people were beaten, stabbed,
shot dead, arrested, kidnapped, some of them disappearing without trace. What
remains is the countless number of dead or injured people and victims of
torture, and another deep wound in the hearts of the Iranians.

About a year ago, Ela was dead for seven minutes. Death had come to her as she was watching her younger brother play gleefully in the sandpit at the park. A sudden flash that washed her world with a burning white light, a merciless roar resembling that of a monster…
Martín Zapater y Clavería, born in Zaragoza on November 12th 1747, came from a family of modest merchants and was taken in to live with a well-to-do aunt, Juana Faguás, and her daughter, Joaquina de Alduy. He studied with Goya in the Escuelas Pías school in Zaragoza from 1752 to 1757 and a friendship arose between them which was to last until the death of Zapater in 1803.
A series of small and rather similar nudes Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu and Eren Eyüboğlu produced in the early 1930s almost resemble a ‘visual conversation’ that focus on a pictorial search. It is also possible to find the visual reflections of this earlier search in the synthesis Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu reached with his stylistic abstractions in the 1950s.
