 تهران، حقیقی یا مجازی 

" طهران جای خوبی است و اگر افکار بلند با لیاقت مکفی در مجرای صحیحی به کار افتد، تنها در طهران است که می توان آن را به نتیجه مطلوب رسانید. طهران مرکز پستی و بلندی، کانون عزت و ذلت، جایگاه سعادت و شقاوت و بالاخره محیطی است که عموم افراد و اخلاق و افکار و عادات و آداب و رسوم اجتماعی را در آغوش خود می پذیرد و سرنوشت خود و قلمرو خود را از روی آنها معین می کند."

از رمان "در تلاش معاش" نوشته محمد مسعود- چاپ سال 1312 شمسی

          امینه پاکروان نخستین بانوی تاریخ دان و رمان نویس ایرانی، اعلام می نماید "تهران شهری بی حافظه است". امینه پاکروان که سعی درمعرفی بخش هائی از فرهنگ و تاریخ کشورمان داشت، متولد و بزرگ شده تهران نبود و با وجود قدرتمندی چون شهر تهران که انسان ستیز است، برخورد نزدیک و مستمر نداشت

تاریخ دستاورد شهرنشینی است و همینطور هنر و ادبیات. مناسبات میان شهروندان و نوع برخوردشان با شهر است که شهر را می سازد. شهر دیوار و ابنیه و خیابان نیست بلکه حضور شهروندانی است که خاطره و حافظه میسازند. وقتی شهری خیابان پرخاطره دارد شهر است. وقتی راه پیمائی میلیونی دارد حافظه دارد. وقتی شاعر فقید دارد حقیقی است. وقتی مجسمه هایش دزدیده میشوند، غیاب زنده تر از حضور* می شود 

شش سال پیش نمایشگاه تهران، حقیقی یا مجازی، با نظر تنگی مسئولان وقت یک روز پس از افتتاحیه، تعطیل شد. آنچه که حذف میشود و دزدیده میشود، زنده تر بازمیگردد. در شهری که به شدت حقیقی است، دنیای مجازی نیزبه شدت واقعی است. در این دنیاهای موازی مجازی، خاطرات و تصاویر با سرعتی جنون آور ثبت می شوند. و مجموع این دنیاهای حقیقی و مجازی است که حافظه این پایتخت را می سازد. قصه های امروز ما – که "شر" و "لایک" میشوند - حتی اگر بخواهیم هم دیگر از صفحه روزگار حذف نمی شوند. ما حذف شدنی نیستیم. پای چوبی ورود ممنوع را نمی فهمد*. 

یکجا نشین که شدیم شهر را ساختیم، در آن بزرگ شدیم، روی دیوار شهر خاطره نقاشی کردیم، در پیاده روها بحث و جدل کردیم، قایق سواریکردیم، قصه گفتیم و اعتراض کردیم و شهر امروز از آن کسانی است که بر حضور خود و حتی "دیگری" اصرار دارن 

در جاده های سوخته (یادآر )| با خویش خوانده بودیم | که: ایمان به خاک، عشق شکوفانی ست.| و رویش علف، علف نرم | بر سطح پای مان | پیدایشی ز مرهم این خاک بود. | همواره بادهای تکاور | از گوشه های دلهره آور | درگوش ما | آواز می سرود به تکرار: |سنگیم و سنگ و سنگ| خاریم و خار و خار. *

For and in memory of Mohammad Ali Sepanlou, The Poet of Tehran 

Tehran is a good place, if ambition along with competence is channeled in correct way, only in Tehran  satisfactory results can be achieved. Tehran is the center of pinnacle sand low downs, center of glory and abjection, stage for bliss and adversity, and finally it’s a setting where all kinds of people and behaviors and thoughts and customs and traditions are embraced, the destiny and the domain of the city is thereby defined. 

From the Novel “Trying To Make A Living”, by Mohamad Massoud, first published in 1933.

Amineh Pakarvan the first female Iranian historian and novelist, declared that “Tehran has no memory”. Amineh Pakravan who for many years introduced aspects of Iranian culture and art to the world, was not born or raised in Tehran, and thus her interaction with a complex city like Tehran was limited. 

History is the product of urban life, so is arts and literature. The relationship between citizens and their encounter with the city, defines a city. A city is not only walls and buildings and streets but it’s the presence of citizens that shapes a city. When a city has streets marked with memories, it becomes a city. When it has millions of people demonstrating, it has conscience. When the city has ‘dead poets’,it becomes real. When it’s sculptures are stolen, “absence becomes more alive than presence”. 

Six years ago, the exhibition “Tehran, Virtual or Real” was closed down by authorities one day after the opening. What is eliminated and stolen returns even stronger. In a city that is extremely real, the virtual world is extremely actual.  It is combination of this parallel virtual and real worlds that makes up the conscience of the city. Our stories that are “liked” and “shared”, even if we want to can no longer be deleted. We will not be omitted. 

When we stayed in one place, we built the city, we grew up in it, and painted our memories on its walls, we debated in its pavements, and rode on boats, told our stories and protested, and today the city is filled up with people who insist on their presence and even that of “the other”.

Artists present in this exhibition: Sasan Abri- Asareh Akasheh- Tanaz Amin- Maryam Amir Farshi–Ghazaleh Bahiraie- Nasser Bakhshi- Dadbeh Bassir- Majid Biglari- Parinaz Eleish- Ebrahim Eskandari- Mohamad Eskandari- Yashar Azar Emdadian- Maryam Espandi - Farhad Fozouni- Kamyar Kafaie- Amir Nasr Kamgooyan - Myriam Quiel - Amir Mousavi-Aliyar Rasti –Navid Rasouli- Zarvan Rouhbakhshan - Romisa Sakaki- Behrang Samadzadegan- Bahar Taheri.

More About Tehran

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.
