Das kleine Schwarze

© Shahram Entekhabi 2003-05

series of 10 poster 180 x 120 cm

acrylics and permanent marker on fashion advertisement

Since 2001, Shahram Entekhabi covers all female heads and bodies in fashion magazines, on Persian miniatures, postcards or in advertisements with the black veil to sensitise the Western viewer to the practical use of the tchador as an ominipresent element of the every-day in his home-country Iran. Ironically, he refers at the same time to the common practice during the time of the Islamic revolution in Iran when the religious leaders censored books and magazines through covering images of female bodies



All heads and bodies of women in European fashion advertisement are covered by the black veil.
