Forugh Farrokhzad is one of the most significant and controversial poets of modern Iranian poetry. Her literary legacy is a poetry of female protest and radical change in the world around her. Her appeal against corruption and abusive power structures in Iran is more relevant than ever in the context of the freedom movement against the Islamic Republic. Based on a collage of Farrokhzad’s poems I PITY THE GARDEN is a post-dramatic approach to Farrokhzad’s poetry created by interdisciplinary artist Nazanin Noori, in which sound, space and installation merge as a spoken opera, exposing itself to the linguistic power of one of the most important contemporary poets.

Poems in English from: Sin – Selected Poems of Forugh Farrokhzad, translated by Sholeh Wolpé (University of Arkansas Press)

Note: The production uses stroboscopic lighting effects, which may have negative effects on light-sensitive viewers.

The series FЯEMDE POESIE? is sponsored by Haupstadtkulturfonds
