Born in Tehran in 1959, Alaleh Alamir began studying
art in the United States getting degrees from Reed College in Oregon,
Parsons School of Design in NY and in 1987 she was accepted for
a Doctorate in NYU. She has since then been mainly living in Europe.
Her universal curiosity, which she put in the service of art at
an
early age, allowed her to put herself to the test
at
once in
both the philosophy of art and its techniques, finding in the
United States, as in Europe, an education, artistic groups,
and the means
for accomplishing her program of a total art.
She has been an artist-in-residence and teacher
in several countries on several continents. Her catalog includes
photography, film, a number of installations, both individual and
group shows of her paintings,
participation
in performances by the Fluxus group, and notably a sound/instrument
collaboration with LaMonte Young in Paris in 1989, and
with other composers of minimalist music from the United States.
Her work is included in numerous collections. For more details
you can consult her website, alalehalamir.com
