About Dayan
DAYAN NAZARI WAS BORN ON JUNE 26, 1994 IN A BOURGEOIS FAMILY IN TEHRAN AND SINCE HE HAD A PASSION FOR DRAWING AND COLORS. AFTER HIS CLASSICAL STUDIES HE APPROACHED ART BY PARTICIPATING IN A PAINTING COMPETITION FOR YOUNG TALENTS IN HIS CITY, WHERE HE WON FIRST PRIZE WHICH ALLOWED HIM TO ATTEND A COURSE FOR YOUNG ARTISTS WITH SURPRISING RESULTS, THUS MANAGING TO WIN A SCHOLARSHIP WHICH ALLOWED HIM TO EXPRESS HIS TRUE PASSION: ART! IN JUST FIVE MONTHS HE PREPARES A SMALL COLLECTION OF PAINTINGS THAT HE MANAGES TO PRESENT IN AN ART GALLERY IN ISFAHAN, WHERE HE RECEIVES A CONSIDERABLE CONSENSUS FROM THE PUBLIC AND THE PRESS. FOR A FEW YEARS, TO COMPLETE HIS UNIVERSITY STUDIES, HE PUT ASIDE HIS PASSION FOR ART, BUT AFTER MEETING THE STYLIST NINO LETTIERI IN ISTANBUL IN 2017, HE MOVES TO ITALY AND HERE HE STARTS PAINTING AGAIN, NOT IRANIAN LANDSCAPES BUT PORTRAITS OF PEOPLE HE MET DURING HIS MANY TRIPS IN ASIA AND EUROPE, WITH A PARTICULAR AND SINGULAR TECHNIQUE; WITH OIL AND ACRYLIC, MULTICHROMATIC, MATERIAL AND SCULPTURAL. HIS WORKS, FOR THE COMBINATIONS OF THE COLORS USED AND THE GEOMETRIC SHAPES, ARE INFLUENCED BY SOME 20TH CENTURY PAINTERS: FROM PICASSO TO MIRÓ, DECLINED IN A CONTEMPORARY KEY. AND THIS IS WHY HIS WORKS ARE VERY REQUESTED IN EUROPE AND OVERSEAS. DAYAN NAZARI HAS PARTICIPATED IN SEVERAL COLLECTIVE AND PERSONAL EXHIBITIONS IN EUROPE INCLUDING GREAT SUCCESS IN BELGRADE AT THE ITALIAN EMBASSY AND THE JUGOSLOVENSKA KINOTEKA MUSEUM. FOR SOME YEARS SOME PAINTINGS WITH GEOMETRIC FIGURES HAVE BEEN A SOURCE OF INSPIRATION FOR INTERIOR DESIGNERS AND HIGH FASHION STYLISTS INCLUDING NINO LETTIERI.
