On November 7, 2009 the CSUF Grand Central Art Center presents Hidden Wounds, Paper Bullets: Iranian Contemporary Art featuring six artists of Iranian descent. As a result of the Iranian Revolution of the 1970s, the artists participating in this exhibition explore western culture and Iranian traditions through their art. Unified by their cultural experiences, these artists offer insight into a community torn between democratic and theocratic values, and a Persian past and Islamic present. Featured artists include: Taraneh Hemami,Aydin Aghdashloo, Yari Ostovany, Hadieh Shafie, Makan “Max” Emadi, Alina Mnatsakanian, as well as archival historic images from the Hoover Institute at Stanford University.
