Explore the breadth of Shirin Neshat’s work through video clips and interactive presentations of selected still images, as well as a video interview with the artist and additional information about her life and inspiration.

This app accompanies the exhibition Shirin Neshat, a major retrospective highlighting two decades of work by the Iranian American artist, at the Detroit Institute of Arts, April 7–July 7, 2013. This comprehensive, mid-career survey of her work is the artist’s first retrospective in ten years and her only significant U.S. effort to show multiple works together in more than ten years. The exhibition includes her early groundbreaking video installations, award-winning seminal works, as well as the more recent video installation Women Without Men (2009). Two of Neshat’s widely celebrated, large-scale photographic works are also included: Women of Allah (1993–97), which earned critical acclaim as a striking exemplar of conceptually based photography, and her stunning The Book of Kings (2012).
