"I entered modern painting by studying the existing patterns on tiles from the "Seljuk period", the presence of which I sometimes even detected in Picasso's works. Later, I returned to calligraphy.
In my new works, I have benefited from the know-how of Masters such as Mohammed Ibrahim Jafari, M. A ehi, Alireza Samii and other contemporary masters. Today I’m no longer trying to recreate the past. I try to express with a modern vision and through symbols and signs of truths about the problems of man in the world today. My goal is never to twist the subject, but when you can't say things simply and openly, I still prefer to say it in a complicated way so that they don't remain unspoken."

"From this artistic quest for contemporary identity, the" Saqqakhaneh "school was born in the early 1960s, characterized by the use of motifs taken from popular art (carpets, ceramics, ironwork, architecture ...) and Shiite votive art. The first modern Iranian artistic movement, it will bring together many artists, including Zenderoudi, Tabatabai and, briefly, Tanavoli, but very quickly several trends will emerge, notably among calligraphic artists, including the "Nagashi-Khat" movement, including Mohammad Ehsai is one of the main representatives and Saadmandt his heir ..... ”

Ali Reza Saadatmand, N°857 - Silver&brown composition
Ali Reza Saadatmand

Ali Reza Saadatmand

Iran  • 1977

Painter – Calligraphist – Photographer – Ceramist


In pursuit of achieving a new and contemporary expression, he has benefited from old calligraphies and plain symbolic forms. He does not intent to recreate the past. Human in contrast with tradition and modernity is his concern. Sometimes, he leads to abstract ambiences; other times, he reaches symbolic forms. He has never considered handwriting as a decorative element. Every time he works with it, he finds new compositions which are rooted in the 1000 years of his fore-fathers tradition, and at the same time faces the future. In his mind Saadatmand analyzes the appearance of the words and creates an abstract, personal and aesthetic form. Most of the artworks have been extracted from mythical patterns, transformed into abstract while presenting Realism has not been my intention, but a way to express and illustrate my thoughts and ideas through form of coins and mythical patterns Simplicity of forms and using limited tones are factors of my work I believe that the main part of an artwork happens in the viewers' eyes and mind; while in this process, the artist only leaves a trace of reality in the work
