Orientalist, Terrorist, Occidentalist
Statement, 2005, 2:39

Khosrow Hassanzadeh, whose silk-screen series "The Terrorist" (2005) formulates a marked criticism of the West’s visual resentment of the Islamic world and at the same time demands the return of the right to self-presentation, tells a short episode of a failed attempt to realize a similar project in the opposite direction in Holland. The planned work "The Orientalist" was to portray Europeans from the Iranian perspective – in the light of the East’s resentment, to put a fine point on it. But the Dutch curators rejected it.
