3. Hossein Zenderoudi
He was born 1937, is a renowned painter and sculptor, known especially as a pioneer of Iranian modern art.A prize-winner at the Paris Biennale the following year, Zenderoudi settled in Paris in 1961. There he developed a robustly original graphic style which established itself brilliantly within the moving lyrical abstraction of the time, halfway between the free action of Informel and the signifying-signified dialectic of Lettrisme. His work Tchaar Bagh was sold at Christi’s International auction in Dubai for $1.6 million.
