Stolen paintings, mysterious etchings, and the story of a family of artists. This fall, YBCA invites you to discover the work of Nicky Nodjoumi and Nahid Hagigat. Across Nodjoumi’s satirical paintings of political power and Hagigat’s etchings about women and the struggle for freedom, you’ll explore the practices of two of the most influential Iranian-American artists working today. YBCA will also host monthly screenings of the HBO documentary “A Revolution on Canvas,” produced by their daughter Sara Nodjoumi and her partner Till Schauder. The film examines the international controversy of 120 missing artworks in Iran, which irreversibly changed this family’s life forever. Join us to uncover the journey that influenced the lives and bold work of these artists → https://bit.ly/3XcqGQD Images include: Nicky Nodjumi’s “Let’s Talk” (2020) and “Approaching Masked Carnival” (2022) and Nahid Hagigat’s “Kurdish Woman in Yellow” (2015) and “Three Women with Green Leaves” (2019).
