Tahmineh Monzavi, an Iranian photographer and director, has been arrested in her native country. According to Eric Cez and Anne Zweibaum of the Loco publishing house, it’s unclear why she was arrested but they suspect it relates to Monzavi’s work.
"Monzavi is known, through her photographs and documentary films, for her role in denouncing issues affecting Iranian society, especially regarding the place given to women in the country," says Cez in a statement. (read more)

Silk Road : contemporary Iranian photography at MILS Gallery
Last Thursday 8th May on Something Else, your weekly dose of alternative arts and culture, Maren Smith interviewed Adriano Rosselli, director of MILS Gallery, Surry Hills, about MLS027 ‘Silk Road’, an exhibition of three contemporary Iranian photographers in conjunction with Silk Road Art Gallery, Tehran.
PODCAST & STREAM HERE.
MLS027 – جاده ابريشم SILK ROAD, opening Thursday 15th May at MILS Gallery, brings works by three contemporary Iranian photographers to Surry Hills. Adriano Rosselli, director of MILS Gallery, speaks with us about each artist and their work, and about the arts culture in Tehran. We speak about the effect of taboos around homosexuality, transvestism and transgenderism, and youth culture in a police state.
The artists showing at Silk Road include Jalal Sepehr, Tahmineh Monzavi and Behnam Sadighi and was curated by Anahita Ghabaian of SRAG, Tehran.
MLSS07 – Silk Road
Opening drinks – Thursday 15 May, 6pm
15 May – 31 May, 2014, Wednesday – Saturday MILS Gallery, 15 Randle St, Surry Hills
Jalal Sepehr’s works being shown are from the Knot series, depicting traditional Persian rugs in the historical city of Yazd, intertwined within landscapes, amongst ancient architecture, and with people carrying, holding, throwing and standing on the rugs.
Tahmineh Monzavi, who was arrested in 2012, whose documentary photography depicts homeless women and transvestites, is showing works of abandoned wedding dresses in Tehran.
Behnam Sadighi’s works from the ‘Holidays’ series document Iranian young people on holidays, stark and beautiful natural landscapes that seem to confine the young people as they can’t quite escape the politics of their country even in nature.
This podcast of this episode can be listened to for up to 12 months from publish date by SUBSCRIBING TO SOMETHING ELSE HERE or you can hear the whole show, music included, by streaming it online through the Eastside website for a limited time.
Tune in next week, Thursdays 6pm for more alternative arts news, discussion and performance.

Street Artist Francisco de Pajaro Turns London’s Garbage Piles Into Art Using paint, markers and clear packing tape artist Francisco de Pajaro aka Art is Trash transforms piles of garbage left out in the streets into bizarre looking creatures. In London for the summer, Francisco has already attracted a massive following with his quirky little street installations in and around Brick Lane.
Dominic McGill
The scale of his works might hint at McGill’s purpose: to create a kind of contemporary history painting, in the knowledge of such a project’s anachronism. As the artist puts it, “history is politics by other means”, and his caution about the partiality of historical certainties is reflected in his perpetually self-critical and contradictory works. Quotations from Christian texts run up against lines from Marxist screeds; common clichés abut fragments of political speeches. (via)
