SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Farshid Shafiey\, Atieh Sohrab\, Baran Shafiey: All in the Family
DESCRIPTION:A group show for three artists whose work here explores the dialogue that emerges between generations of artists\, revealing how personal histories\, cultural memory\, and individual artistic languages intersect. Through painting and illustration\, the artists reflect on themes of identity\, everyday life\, and imagination\, offering viewers an intimate glimpse into the visual worlds that shape their creative practices. \nWith a background spanning painting\, illustration\, graphic design\, and animation\, Shafiey approaches art as a space for creative freedom and visual storytelling; his compositions often embrace humour and spontaneity\, drawing inspiration from cultural references and philosophical ideas. Sohrabi draws on her extensive experience in illustration to construct images that balance narrative sensitivity with refined visual language; her works often evoke moments of quiet reflection\, where delicate compositions and subtle details convey emotional depth and personal memory. Shafiey\, the youngest of the three\, presents figurative paintings that explore narrative\, colour\, and ornamentation. Through her exploration of form\, perspective\, and storytelling\, Baran creates scenes that draw from everyday experiences while opening space for imagination and interpretation.

SUMMARY:Safar Book Group: Free – A Child and a Country at the End of History
DESCRIPTION:Lea Ypi’s colourful\, hectic coming-of-age story through the end Communism in the Balkans\, published in 1922\, has won several awards\, made the shortlist for many more\, and features on several ‘Best Book of the Year’ lists. The shock felt by the Young Pioneer and Stalin enthusiast as the Berlin Wall fell and her country\, Albania\, began a messy transition to join the “free markets” of the Western world provides a rich if somewhat dystopian brew. Ypi is a classy writer\, and through the gripping narrative she’s able to prompt us to ask questions the relation between the personal and the political\, and more deeply about the meaning of freedom … An interesting and potentially productive choice for the monthly book club.
