Pouran Jinchi is a New York-based artist of Iranian origin.〔(NYTimes: Persian Calligraphy Opens a Door to Modern Art )〕 Pouran Jinchi borrows from her home culture's traditions of literature and calligraphy to pursue her own aesthetic investigations.〔(Pouran Jinchi Artist Bio - Art Projects International )〕 Trained as a calligrapher in Mashad, Iran, Jinchi received a Bachelor of Science, Civil Engineering, George Washington University, Washington, DC (1982) before studying Sculpture and Painting, University of California, Los Angeles, California (1989) and Studio Painting, The Art Students League of New York, New York, NY (1993).〔(Christies: Pouran Jinchi )〕 Jinchi’s work often employs a mixture of calligraphy and abstract expressionism that intertwines Islamic geometry, Iranian traditions and contemporary aesthetics, with a unique lyricism.〔 (VIPart : Pouran Jinchi )〕 Her early Poetry paintings are both abstract and literal presentations of poems in which texts are morphed beyond recognition into flowing, anthropomorphic shapes. Having been trained in calligraphy, she finds the relation between words and forms, natural or non-objective, deeply intertwined. Jinchi’s recent work reflects an increasingly detailed focus on the form of language as subject matter.〔 Jinchi has exhibited extensively and has had eight solo exhibitions in New York alone.〔(ArtTattler.com )〕 Recent exhibitions include a two-person show at Frieze Art Fair, London (2011) and solo exhibitions at Art Projects International, New York (2012),〔(Pouran Jinchi "Dawn, Noon and Night" at API )〕 The Third Line, Dubai (2010), the Leila Heller Gallery, New York (2011),〔See (Persianesque Magazine )〕 and the Vilcek Foundation,〔(Vilcek Foundation features Pouran Jinchi )〕 New York (2008). Her work has also been exhibited at the Asian Art Museum San Francisco, Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art, Museum of Fine Arts Houston, Brooklyn Museum and the Queens Museum of Art. Jinchi was included in ''Iran Inside Out''〔(Universes in Universe: IranInsideOut )〕 at the Chelsea Art Museum (2009)〔(Universes in Universe: Pouran Jinchi )〕 and most recently in ''New Blue and White'' at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston (2013).〔(The Boston Globe: 'New Blue and White' at the MFA )〕 Her work is represented in major collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY;〔(Met Museum: Pouran Jinchi )〕 Museum of Fine Arts Houston; Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art, NY; Farjam Collection, Dubai; Brooklyn Museum, NY; Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, Smithsonian Institution, Washington DC; Federal Reserve Bank, NY; and several major corporate collections.〔(ArtNet: Pouran Jinchi )〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pouran Jinchi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
