The Aga Khan Museum presents the world premiere of Abbas Kiarostami: Doors Without Keys, the first solo artist exhibition at the Museum showcasing remarkable works from world renowned Iranian photographer, poet, and filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami.
Featuring doors photographed over two decades in Iran, France, Morocco, and Italy, the evocative installation Abbas Kiarostami: Doors Without Keys takes visitors on a multi-sensory journey through memory and imagination. Arresting photographs of closed doors — printed at life size and mounted on canvas — are arranged in maze-like configurations, recalling the labyrinthine streets of an unnamed old city.
The exhibition is co-curated by Amirali Alibhai, Head of Performing Arts at the Aga Khan Museum and Peter Scarlet, a veteran film curator and film festival programmer based in Abu Dhabi, UAE and New York City.
In early 2016 the Aga Khan Museum and TIFF will co-present a series of Kiarostami’s films in the Aga Khan Museum Auditorium and at TIFF Bell Lightbox.
