NAVID NUUR : PHANTOM FUEL

13 Mar-19 May 2013

Parasol Unit Foundation For Contemporary Art
London N1 7RW

Overview

Nuur’s works are based on phenomenological experiences. He commonly attributes transformative properties to found objects, thereby repositioning their function, meaning and impact in ways that provide viewers with a whole new experience. NAVID NUUR: PHANTOM FUEL undoubtedly provides a visual experience, but invariably visitors also find themselves entering a world of discovery. Although often referred to as a conceptual artist, Nuur’s art refuses to be simply the physical manifestation of an idea or concept. Born in Tehran in 1976, Navid Nuur currently lives and works in The Hague, The Netherlands.
