Highways Art #1, Channel 1 From Artists statement: Streets in Tehran are widening every day and sidewalks are becoming narrower; highways are destroying the urban texture, traditional squares and gathering zones, so as to facilitate the everyday urban commute of people in their private sedans and there is no real sign of encouraging people to use public transportation, going on foot, bicycling or any other transportation in which the communication of citizens with each other is imaginable. In this situation and when there is no public space, there wouldn’t be any space to put city’s public art too, but Tehran municipality found a solution around 2 years ago: to put artworks beside the highways for the audiences who are driving their private cars. “Highway Art 01” 4 Channels Video, 1.8*3 meters each screens, loop Alireza Labeshka & Masih Mostajeran 2014 _______ FOLLOW LIPSapp Classic Radio _______ FB: r-js/1vz7Pcz / TW: r-js/1kHd2Qt / Listen to LIPSapp Classic Radio r-js/1dOIQ18 #classicrock #rollingstones #ledzeppelin #santana #eagles #zztop #thewho #beatles #elvis #jimihendrix #dylan #acdc #michaeljackson #pinkfloyd #madonna #u2
