Nicky Nodjoumi + Nahid Hagigat Exhibition Opening at YBCA
Exhibition Opening Celebration of NICKY NODJOUMI: THE PERSONAL IS POLITICAL and NAHID HAGIGAT: ETCHED IN TIME on October 5 at San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, proudly sponsored by Farhang Foundation! Look at the photos from the unforgettable opening weekend, celebrating two extraordinary solo U.S. exhibitions. These powerful, interconnected works from a family of artists delve into personal and political narratives, shaped by experiences of revolution and resistance. Nodjoumi’s striking paintings confront power structures, while Hagigat’s evocative etchings explore themes of freedom, resilience, and the human condition. Curator Amy Kisch shared, “These exhibitions invite us to reflect on the role of artists and the power of creative expression, especially during times of political upheaval.”
