Born in Isfahan, Iran, 1958
Isfahan School of Fine Arts
National University of Iran, Tehran, Architecture
has
been followed by twenty five years of tremendous amount of work, travel,
research and observation of different works providing him with knowledge
and understanding of the advanced approach and technique in his
watercolor works.
Mohammad Reza Atashzad has served for 21 years in his own Academy of
Arts in Tehran, teaching his enthused students, his own exceptional
techniques in design and watercolor, in his long and distinguished
career.
He has also published, more than one hundred postal cards and posters in
a very delicate and artistic style, as well as 5 collections of his
selected works. Moreover, he has held over 50 individual and group
exhibitions in Iran and abroad.
In his vibrant and spectacular images of art creation, light is amply
employed for the expression of internal phenomena, and a fleeting
emotional experience is mirrored by each of his works with the haste
required by watercolor painting. His paintings depict his deep emotions
and feelings of love and passion, making him a very well known and
popular artist.
Atashzad is a man of enormous talent and significantly different from
others as his creations are at a cross between reality and poetic
imagination, where at times is difficult to differentiate between the
two.
