Description from the seller
Mehrdad Sadri. Tehran, 1944.
Magic (folds and visage). 2006.
Oil on canvas.
Signed bottom left: “SADRI 06”. On canvas. 120 x 100 cm (47.2 x 39.4 in).
Mehrdad Sadri counts among the leading representatives of contemporary Persian-European painting, whose work virtuously fuses traditional Oriental mysticism with the expressive forms of Western modernity. His works are defined by masterful lighting and a subtle, surreal refined aesthetics of veiling.
Large-format, monumentally striking work of exceptional painterly finesse, in which warm gold- and earth-toned light penetrates the photorealistically worked folds and the hazy visage in plastically sculpted fashion.
The play of unveiling and concealment is one of the central, recurring main motifs in Sadri’s multifaceted oeuvre.
A mature testament to the artist’s Vienna creative phase, which impressively manifests the intimate dialogue between Eastern poetry and European painting school.
Masterful fusion of organic fabric texture and human physiognomy as an iconic metaphor for transience, protection, and the search for what lies behind.
In excellent condition; the edges of the outer sides minimally rubbed due to handling. See photos
Works of this masterful execution and impressive dimensions are predominantly in private collections and represent a rare opportunity on the international auction market.
Seller's Story
Art dealing has been in our family: my grandfather was an art dealer, and my mother is an antique dealer. In 2017, I continued this tradition and founded the Antoni Art Dealership—with the goal of making high-quality European art accessible to a new audience. Since then, we have passionately dedicated ourselves to trading paintings from the 19th century to the present. Our portfolio is complemented by our own gallery for contemporary art, where we present and promote current artistic positions.
Our expertise, cross-generational experience, and a carefully curated selection make us a special address for collectors, art lovers, and the curious.
