Fire of Love is Amin Roshan's first solo London exhibition. Roshan is a Tehran-based multi-disciplinary artist whose output is deeply informed by his Bahktiari tribal heritage and his family's involvement for many generations in the country's oil industry. He grew up close to where the first oil well in the Middle East was discovered and his formative years were shaped by the physical presence of oil in and around the streets where he grew up. His works draw on archive materials with oil, sourced from home. Refreshingly, Roshan neither condemns nor celebrates the oil business, rather he presents the cautionary view of an informed insider fluent in the complexities and history of the subject.
The exhibition is open now to view by appointment and runs until 27 March 2020 | contact: +44 20 7629 6888 | www.rossirossi.com
