Shirin Neshat

We were in Chicago yesterday at the Museum of Contemporary Art and saw the piece Turbulent by Shirin Neshat.

It called me from the other galleries, this siren call, a woman’s voice breaking out into a multi-layered caterwaul of emotion.

I wandered into the dark gallery and saw a man on a screen

Turbulent

staring across the room at a woman singing on another screen.

Turbulent

Such singing.

The singer is Sussan Deyhim and she has some CDs I am trying to track down.

I found two interviews with Shirin Neshat from the Charlie Rose show: one and two. Skip to the middle to see her.
