Ronewa Art Projects (Berlin) and O Gallery (Tehran) are excited to announce their second collaborative exhibition, opening on the occasion of Gallery Weekend Berlin. Nature’s Renewal opens on Friday, April 26 at Ronewa Art Projects and features the work of six Tehran-based Iranian artists. Brought together by curator Orkideh Daroodi from O Gallery, each artist offers a unique perspective on nature and the surrounding environments. The works in this group culminate to reflect our relationship to the natural world and how we draw on nature to communicate ideas about social, political, and cultural themes. Several artists utilize nature as their subject to turn the lens toward modes of representation and image making itself. Through an array of techniques – combined with personal experiences, memories, and allegory – the artists communicate our intertwined relationship with nature and to the stories and images we create of it. Daroodi’s curation, of mostly small and intricate drawings, creates an intimate interaction between the works and an opportunity for curiosity, inviting viewers to contemplate their own connections to nature.

This collaboration aims to not only celebrate the power of artistic expression but also foster cultural exchange. Four of the exhibited artists were part of a postponed exhibition originally planned for August 2023, and thus we are pleased to be presenting them now in Berlin during Gallery Weekend. O Gallery will be concurrently exhibiting two of the participating artists at the Paper Positions Berlin art fair.
