Reza Abedini

ISSUE#5

ABBookness and Reza Abedini worked together in 2018 and 2019 to publish The Famous Wise Men.

The Famous Wise Men images are fusions of Abedini’s obsession with writing and typography along his iconographic approach to representation of figures. The folio consists of 5 pieces – The Chanter, The Clown, The Nonbeliever, The Soothsayer and The Wanderer – printed in Screen-print and thinner transfer on Paper. The editions were produced in two separate phases: Thinner transfers were editioned by the artist himself and then were screen-printed over them on Dara Print Studio.

The Folio was launched in 009821projects in Tehran in December 2019.
