Goethe at LUX Residency Experimental Research Roundtable
During her residency Goethe at LUX residency artist Anahita Razmi considers the future of The Islamic Republic of Iran as seen from the perspective of a diverse range of diasporic communities.
Entitled THE FUTURE STATE, her project references the work of Iranian Marxist Mansoor Hekmat, who is buried in close proximity to Karl Marx in Highgate Cemetery. Hekmat was a theorist, revolutionary and leader of the Iranian worker-communist movement, active in Iran until 1981 and in Kurdistan and the UK afterwards until his death in 2002.
THE FUTURE STATE #01 is the first event in a series of open experimental research roundtables. The evening will start with a screening of Maziar Bahari's documentary An Iranian Odyssey (2010), which addresses the history of Iran under the governance of Mohammad Mossadegh and the unfolding of the 1953 CIA coup.
