Silk Road

Silk Road, Iran’s first gallery exclusively devoted to photography, opened in December 2001. Since, many Iranian photographers have been introduced to a wider public. And a wider public have learned to enjoy the subtlety, the commitment and the variety of their styles and visions through Silk Road Gallery. One will notice that Iranian photographers find an engaging and passionate frame of reference to tell their story. Contemporary photography is accompanying Iranians all the way into modernity, and Silk Road Gallery has been with them throughout these times. Far from being just a commercial institution, the gallery has acted as a catalyst for modern movements in photography. Silk Road Gallery also participates in the well-known international art fairs such as “Arco”, “Art Dubai” , “Art Paris” and “Paris Photo” in the prestigious cultural events.
