Lyles & King Gallery is pleased to present the first New York solo exhibition of Iran-born artist Arghavan Khosravi (b. 1984). Khosravi paints metaphysical and vivid, contemporary scenes that confront the challenges of existence under religious-ideological autocracies through the consideration of a woman seeking independence. Set in the present day, Khosravi’s subjects are grounded in multinational influences of an ever-looming sociopolitical or cultural past.
