چرا بیدارم کردی ؟
دادبه بصیر
نمایشگاه انفرادی عکس
افتتاحیه19 دی الی 2 بهمن ماه
عکس های دادبه بصیر سرزندگی قاطعی دارند و شاید این ویژگی است که مخاطب را با آثار او "مواجه" می¬کند. کنش "ثبت عکس" برای او یک اتفاق ساده و سرسری نیست، تمامی جزییات از آغاز تا پایان به دقت حساب شده هستند و اثر نهائی به همان مقدار که به مخاطب "ارائه" می کند از او طلب نیز می کند. مخاطب ناچار به واکنش است و به نظر می¬رسد که این وضعیتی است که دادبه بصیر بیش از هرچیز در انتظارش است
هنرمند احساسات شخصی اش را به روایتهای حساب شده اش گره می زند. در خودنگاره هایش، با دغدغه های شخصی اش روبرو میشود؛ سی تی اسکن های پزشکی و فیلم های رادیوگرافی بدن خود را تشریح کرده و از آنها رمز زدائی می کند و نهایتا" "ناشناخته ی نامیمون" به چیزی فوق العاده زیبا تبدیل میشود. در رفتاری مشابه و بواسطه استفاده هوشمندانه از آیینه، با تلفیق منظره های پیش پاافتاده شهری با آسمان بیکران، ناشناخته های دلهره آور کلان شهر را به تصویری رویائی بدل می¬سازد. باردیگر ناشناخته ها، بی ثباتی ها و ترسها دور می¬شوند. امر ناشناخته با اشتیاق پذیرفته و به امری عادی و قابل شناسائی تبدیل می¬شود و در این رویاروئی است که دنیای پیرامون تغییر یافته و دست یافتنی و حتی خوشایند می¬شود.
دغدغه دادبه بصیر در رابطه با تالیف تصویر، حساب شده و عمیق است. هر اثر خاصیتی از پیش روشن شده و تزلزل ناپذیر دارد. هر "شات عکس" به مثابه آخرین تیر است. و مجموعه آثار بطور کلی و یا تک تک، عکس العملی به دنیای پیرامون هنرمند محسوب میشوند
برای این نمایشگاه، هنرمند منتخبی از آثار مختلفش برگزیده که از نظر بصری بسیار متفاوت به نظر می¬رسند اما پیوستگی آثار با دقت در مفهوم هر تصویر روشن می¬شود. سرنخ شاید عنوان نمایشگاه باشد که راهنمای حل مسئله و کلید گشایش این جدول کلمات متقاطع است
مجموعه این رویکردها بصیر را به یکی از قابل تامل ترین مولفین تصویر درحوزه عکاسی ایران بدل ساخته و این نمایشگاه فرصتی نادر است برای تعمق در آثار و سبک ویژه او.
Why Did You Wake Me Up?
Dadbeh Bassir
Solo Exhibition of Photography and video.
9 -2 2 January 2015
The photographs of Dadbeh Bassir have a certain vivacity and that is perhaps why you Encounter them. The act of 'taking' a photograph is not mundane to him, every single detail from inception to method is thorough and the final product gives to viewer as much as it takes from them. The viewer responds to the images and it appears that it is this reaction that artist anticipates above all.
He weaves his personal emotions in to his paced out narratives. In his self portraits he faces his dilemmas; He dissects scans and x-ray films
of his own body and demystifies them, the sinister unknown becomes an object of utter beauty. In similar approach by juxtaposing the bland cityscape and the infinite sky – through careful placing of mirror-, artist creates a dreamlike world, where uncertainties and fears are omitted.
The Feared Unknown is now embraced and made in to the Familiar and thereby the world is altered and is tangible and more likeable.
Dadbeh Bassir’s involvement with image making is measured and profound, every single piece feels pre determined and unwavering. Every Shot is treated as The Last Shot. His body of work appears to be a collective response to the world, whether as series of works or single frames.
For this exhibition he has chosen works that visually are different from each other, the cohesion is to be found through careful study of the concept of each image and the clue will be to take the title of the exhibition as the precursor, and to fit in the single pieces in to the cross word.
And that is perhaps why he is simply the best kept secret in the vibrant photography scene of Iran. This exhibition will be a rare occasion to study this brilliant image maker and his mannerism.

Overview and HistoryTehran is the capital of Iran and the largest city in the Middle East, with a population of fifteen million people living under the peaks of the Alborz mountain range.Although archaeological evidence places human activity around Tehran back into the years 6000BC, the city was not mentioned in any writings until much later, in the thirteenth century. It's a relatively new city by Iranian standards.But Tehran was a well-known village in the ninth century. It grew rapidly when its neighboring city, Rhages, was destroyed by Mongolian raiders. Many people fled to Tehran.In the seventeenth century Tehran became home to the rulers of the Safavid Dynasty. This is the period when the wall around the city was first constructed. Tehran became the capital of Iran in 1795 and amazingly fast growth followed over the next two hundred years.The recent history of Tehran saw construction of apartment complexes and wide avenues in place of the old Persian gardens, to the detriment of the city's cultural history.The city at present is laid out in two general parts. Northern Tehran is more cosmopolitan and expensive, southern Tehran is cheaper and gets the name "downtown."Getting ThereMehrabad airport is the original one which is currently in the process of being replaced by Imam Khomeini International Airport. The new one is farther away from the city but it now receives all the international traffic, so allow an extra hour to get there or back.TransportationTehran driving can be a wild free-for-all like some South American cities, so get ready for shared taxis, confusing bus routes and a brand new shiny metro system to make it all better. To be fair, there is a great highway system here.The metro has four lines, tickets cost 2000IR, and they have segregated cars. The women-only carriages are the last two at the end, FYI.Taxis come in two flavors, shared and private. Private taxis are more expensive but easier to manage for the visiting traveler. Tehran has a mean rush hour starting at seven AM and lasting until 8PM in its evening version. Solution? Motorcycle taxis! They cut through the traffic and any spare nerves you might have left.People and CultureMore than sixty percent of Tehranis were born outside of the city, making it as ethnically and linguistically diverse as the country itself. Tehran is the most secular and liberal city in Iran and as such it attracts students from all over the country.Things to do, RecommendationsTake the metro to the Tehran Bazaar at the stop "Panzda Gordad". There you can find anything and everything -- shoes, clothes, food, gold, machines and more. Just for the sight of it alone you should take a trip there.If you like being outside, go to Darband and drink tea in a traditional setting. Tehranis love a good picnic and there are plenty of parks to enjoy. Try Mellat park on a friday (fridays are public holidays), or maybe Park Daneshjou, Saaii or Jamshidieh.Remember to go upstairs and have a look around, always always always! The Azadi Tower should fit the bill; it was constructed to commemorate the 2500th anniversary of the Persian Empire.Tehran is also full of museums such as:the Contemporary Art Museumthe Abghine Musuem (glass works)the 19th century Golestan Royal Palace museumthe museum of carpets (!!!)Reza Abbasi Museum of extraordinary miniaturesand most stunning of all,the Crown Jewels Museum which holds the largest pink diamond in the world and many other jaw-dropping jewels.Text by Steve Smith.
