This book explores, through the vision of ten contemporary Iranian
photographers, the contrasts and contradictions that exist in
Iranian Society at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Each
representation is different to the next and each image serves to
represent the main conflict present in Iran today: that of the
power of tradition versus the quest for modernity. Each of the ten
photographers has chosen an aspect of daily life in their country,
for example, a cafe, a shopping mall, and the clerics, with each
serving to show another part of the mosaic of cultural experience
in Iran. One theme that remains constant through all of the images
is that of women, who remain living symbols of the interaction
between change and stagnation. In this book, women test the limits
of the Hijab and their experience is used to represent that of
young women all around the world.
