Tehran's art community is grappling with the aftermath of the 12-day war between Israel and Iran in June 2025, which has battered the economy, driven up inflation, and slowed art sales as collectors tighten spending. Despite these challenges, galleries like 8Cube and O Gallery are showing resilience: 8Cube's group show "Expectant," curated by sculptor Bita Fayyazi and featuring 28 emerging artists, drew 1,500 visitors on its opening night in August, signaling a tentative return to cultural life. Gallery founders report that sales have plummeted, with collectors shifting to gold or foreign currency, and that rising costs, electricity outages, and water shortages add pressure.

Min ha Park: ‘I think about creating situations where things don’t immediately explain themselves’

Min ha Park, a Korean artist born in Seoul in 1984, is featured as part of this year's Korean Artists Today project, which selects emerging Korean artists with global potential. Park began her artistic journey as a form of teenage rebellion against classical music training, moving to New York in 2002 to study at the School of Visual Arts. After a residency at Woodstock through the Pollock-Krasner Foundation in 2008, she shifted to painting as her primary practice, later earning an MFA from Yale University in 2011. Her luminous, abstract works capture ephemeral natural phenomena like light through fog or rain, using materials such as spray paint, wax, and oil to create layered, unresolved visual experiences. She has recently expanded into performance, collaborating with choreographer Yanghee Lee on a piece titled Shimmering.
