A lacy garment opens to reveal an aerial view of marchers protesting for women’s rights in ‘Women of Revolution,’ a beautifully detailed colored pencil on paper drawing in Azita Moradkhani’s inspiring show at Jane Lombard Gallery. Fueled by the Woman Life Freedom movement and her own long consideration of impositions on women’s bodies in her home country of Iran, Moradkhani’s drawings combine photojournalistic images of protest with undergarments that symbolize close and personal concerns. (On view in Tribeca through June 10th).
