Everyone can tell a story through art, and the Time is Now to break down barriers to expression and give people the tools to be seen and heard.

It is not all rest though - we are working to relaunch a new and improved GMEP later this month. While we have been away from writing though, we have been getting some nice attention from the super giant and super stylish Italian magazine a hrefhttp://periodici.repubblica.it/d/>D la Repubblica/a> who featured us (page 170) along with a photo by Omani photographer a hrefhttp://tinyurl.com/6d7ovya>Nadia Alamri/a>. If anyone can read what it says we would love to know. Famous German magazine STERN also contacted us a couple of days ago about the work of one of the other photographers GMEP featured so look for a Saudi photo artist to grace its pages soon.br />br />Please stand by, we will return.br />br />GMEP/div>div styleclear: both;>/div>/div>div classpost-footer>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-1>span classpost-author vcard>Posted byspan classfn>GMEP/span>/span>span classpost-timestamp>ata classtimestamp-link hrefhttp://www.greatermiddleeastphoto.com/2011/10/stern-d-la-repubblica-and-holiday.html relbookmark titlepermanent link>abbr classpublished title2011-10-03T21:18:00+03:30>9:18 PM/abbr>/a>/span>span classpost-comment-link>a classcomment-link hrefhttp://www.greatermiddleeastphoto.com/2011/10/stern-d-la-repubblica-and-holiday.html#comment-form onclick>2comments/a>/span>span classpost-icons>span classitem-action>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/email-post.g?blogID4313910752476812745&postID8152914288074083782 titleEmail Post>img alt classicon-action height13 srchttp://img1.blogblog.com/img/icon18_email.gif width18/>/a>/span>span classitem-control blog-admin pid-1506969879>a hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID4313910752476812745&postID8152914288074083782&frompencil titleEdit Post>img alt classicon-action height18 srchttps://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif width18/>/a>/span>/span>div classpost-share-buttons goog-inline-block>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-email hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID4313910752476812745&postID8152914288074083782&targetemail target_blank titleEmail This>span classshare-button-link-text>Email This/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-blog hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID4313910752476812745&postID8152914288074083782&targetblog onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height270,width475); return false; target_blank titleBlogThis!>span classshare-button-link-text>BlogThis!/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID4313910752476812745&postID8152914288074083782&targettwitter target_blank titleShare to Twitter>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Twitter/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID4313910752476812745&postID8152914288074083782&targetfacebook onclickwindow.open(this.href, _blank, height430,width640); return false; target_blank titleShare to Facebook>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Facebook/span>/a>a classgoog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest hrefhttps://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID4313910752476812745&postID8152914288074083782&targetpinterest target_blank titleShare to Pinterest>span classshare-button-link-text>Share to Pinterest/span>/a>/div>span classpost-backlinks post-comment-link>/span>span classpost-labels>/span>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-2>/div>div classpost-footer-line post-footer-line-3>/div>/div>/div>/div> /div>/div> div classdate-outer> h2 classdate-header>span>7/2/11/span>/h2> div classdate-posts> div classpost-outer>div classpost hentry>a name3537009984379947810>/a>h3 classpost-title entry-title>a hrefhttp://www.greatermiddleeastphoto.com/2011/07/paradoxical-iran.html>Paradoxical Iran/a>/h3>div classpost-header>div classpost-header-line-1>/div>/div>div classpost-body entry-content idpost-body-3537009984379947810>div dirltr styletext-align: left; trbidion>div classseparator styleclear: both; text-align: center;>/div>table aligncenter cellpadding0 cellspacing0 classtr-caption-container stylemargin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;>tbody>tr>td styletext-align: center;>a hrefhttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuD72zN3CRFdDuZ-k-AwTno8n2vn_Sg8j2uqbtyb11bcXUe0eTCIoxOnJU4rCayfKpu5InO0Of3w_jMTKmy3xoDgZomXDxciRiTAXhLjSxV8x-R9DnYm1PRIoceM6DeJ7oMLi5ZsLc_nU/s1600/paradoxicalSociety2.jpg imageanchor1 stylemargin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;>img border0 height400 srchttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuD72zN3CRFdDuZ-k-AwTno8n2vn_Sg8j2uqbtyb11bcXUe0eTCIoxOnJU4rCayfKpu5InO0Of3w_jMTKmy3xoDgZomXDxciRiTAXhLjSxV8x-R9DnYm1PRIoceM6DeJ7oMLi5ZsLc_nU/s400/paradoxicalSociety2.jpg width396 />/a>/td>/tr>tr>td classtr-caption styletext-align: center;>span classApple-style-span stylefont-size: small;>Ali Nadjian & Ramyar Manouchehrzadeh/span>/td>/tr>/tbody>/table>a hrefhttp://www.silkroadphoto.com/sn/photographers/pt/full/id/79/artist/Ali>Ali Nadjian and Ramyar Manouchehrzadeh/a> have individual photography practices, but it is in their co-created series We Live in a Paradoxical Society that they really excel. Alone, each of the Iranian photographers have dark and moody, staged images, and at times have seemingly both used the same panoramic camera - or at least presented their images in the same long horizontal proportion.br />br />Somehow, in coming together on We Live in a Paradoxical Society, the images become more successful, more mysterious and give just enough away to make you look longer and think more about what is happening with and to the characters in the series.br />br />Created to illustrate the duality between home life and public life in Iran, Nadjian and Manouchehrzadeh explain in the series on Tehran photo gallery website a hrefhttp://www.silkroadphoto.com/>Silk Road Photo/a>.br />br />i>Through these images, we aim to illustrate the output of this dual life in a constructed atmosphere which leads to fear and indifference. This collection has a narrative inside which is the result of our thoughts and necessarily there is no rule that sub narratives are happening in each image of it; meaning that no boundary can be marked between reality and imagination, or between a documentary image and a subjective one/i>.br />br />table aligncenter cellpadding0 cellspacing0 classtr-caption-container stylemargin-left: auto;

Many contemporary Middle East photography fans will be familiar with this 1795 - 1925 dynasty through Shadi Ghadirians reference of the period in her Qajar series which GMEP wrote about a hrefhttp://www.greatermiddleeastphoto.com/2010/06/shadi-ghadirian.html>HERE/a>.br />br />Sevruguin ran one of Tehrans most successful photo studios for about 65 years, ending at his death in 1933. The decades the photographer was producing images cover the latter part of Qajar dynasty and the early a classnormalBlackFont1 href>Pahlavi Dynasty./a>br />br />Though also a photographer for the Imperial Court of Iran, Sevruguins work covered a wide range of subjects from portraits of blind men and beggars to wealthy upper class citizens as well as landscape and social-documentary images. br />br />The images shown here (a hrefhttp://www.iranian.com/Arts/2007/January/Sevruguin/1.html>via Iran.com /a>and the a hrefhttp://www.rmv.nl/index.aspx?langen>National Museum of Ethnology/a>, Netherlands) are from the book a hrefhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0295978457/theiranianA/>Sevruguin and the Persian Image: Photographs of Iran, 1870 - 1930/a>.

Shaal took the series of images – titled Altneuland (Old-new land) – by sourcing photos taken between 1926 - 1979 in what is now Israel. He then located the exact spot they were taken from. i>I held the photos in front of me and shot a wider photo. The colored 2010 reality continues where the black and white photo ends. In some places, it seems nothing has changed, but in others, the buildings have changed their purpose and the black and white people are planted strangely in todays reality/i>. says Shaal explaining the process.br />br />Ci>losing the exhibition in Beirut was a shame/i> the photographer continues. i>They wanted me out of the exhibition not because who I am or what my work shows. The World Press Photo exhibition contains a lot of political content, and theres no need to involve external politics/i>. i>Yes, I live in Israel and Im an Israeli photographer, but I represent only myself and the paper I work for, and for sure not the Israeli government, which I oppose/i>. br />br />If the work is political, visually at least, it is ambiguously so. The images are about the passing of time and changes between the now and then. Of course, a lot has changed between now and then in the territory the images are taken and it is hard for anything concerning Palestinians and Israelis not to have political undertones.br />br />Reasoning why the protests against his work began, Shaal says It was just because of the words Amit Shaal, Israel.br />br />This likely is true but for those who looked into the meaning of the works title, there may have been more to it. As Shaal tells me, i>The series name, Altneuland (Old-New Land), refers to Theodor Hertzls book from 1902. It is a story of an Austrian and a German sailing to a Pacific Island. On their way, they stop in Palestine. After 20 years on that Pacific island they head back to Europe and stop again in Palestine. They discover a land drastically transformed, showcasing a free, open and cosmopolitan modern society, and boasting a thriving cooperative industry based on state-of-the-art technology. In the two decades that have passed, European Jews have rediscovered and re-inhabited their Altneuland, reclaiming their own destiny in the land of Israel/i>.br />br />Regardless of the photographers nationality, the title of the work, or where the work was photographed, this ultimately reflects poorly on Lebanon and is most significantly a loss for those living in Lebanon for not being able to see the world famous exhibition. Without the opportunity to see the work for the intended duration of the show, many Lebanese, Palestinians and others living or visiting the country, are not given the courtesy to judge the work for themselves. i>Unlike Hertzls book/i>... Shaal says ...i>this series leaves the commentary in the viewers hands/i>. Perhaps not surprisingly, most people GMEP spoke to in Lebanon felt the work should not have been protested. br />br /> i>And anyway, Shaal points out in these days censorship is ridiculous, when everything is accessible on the Internet/i>.br />br />table aligncenter cellpadding0 cellspacing0 classtr-caption-container stylemargin-left: auto;

The warm colours – golds, yellows and browns – the halos around the heads, the combination of photography and paint – and even the wardrobe of these self portraits – work together to create images that look like they come from the 10th century rather than today.br />br />Of course, if you look more closely, key differences become apparent. For example where you might expect to see Christian white men, you instead see a bearded Muslim woman – Al Qadiri.br />br />Using Christian iconography is uncommon for a Muslim artist, and playing with gender roles is probably even more bold – especially for a Muslim woman. br />br />Al Qadiris project statement for her exhibition at a hrefhttp://www.sultangallery.com/2011/04/09/the-tragedy-of-self-by-monira-al-qadiri-12th-14th-april-2011/>Sultan Gallery/a> in Kuwait says,br />br />...i>the concept of the ‘Self’ is an important one. The Self is taught to be glorified and worshiped.../i>br />i>In this series of works, this tragic cycle of narcissism is expressed through the use of photographic self-portraits; many of them being saint-like and androgynous, with melancholic expressions, fragmented into many parts. By actively participating in the conceptual structure of her work, the artist wishes to convey that she too is not outside the cycle, reinforcing the sense of vulnerability by posing herself as the tragic subject./i> br />br />table aligncenter cellpadding0 cellspacing0 classtr-caption-container stylemargin-left: auto;

Farassat has so far avoided this pitfall./span>br />br />span classAutoLink id_LblBody>Using self-portraits, family photos and pictures of strangers, Farassat hand sews the sequins over the entire image, with the exception of the main subjects. Sequins posses a duality that allows them to have both extravagant and cheap connotations. These photo based artworks also take on a duality of being hand crafted and covered in glamour, but not escaping the kitsch that covers most of their surface. /span>br />br />span classAutoLink id_LblBody>The feminine material and the act of sewing puts this work in the territory of gender based art.
