This was the first exhibition in Britain (Barbican, London, 2001) to examine the development of Iranian art in the 20 years before and after the Islamic Revolution of 1977. It featured over 50 works from 20 different artists, bringing together for the first time works from the Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art.

The exhibition, supported by Visiting Arts, played an important role in introducing British audiences to the scope and quality of recent art from Iran.
