In 1981, this painter fled his native Iran for New York City when his solo exhibition at the Tehran Museum was shut down by Ayatollah Khomeini, one day after it opened. Sixteen years later, short on cash for supplies and working in the Brooklyn loft he shared with his wife and daughter, Nodjoumi began painting on the front page of the Times, a daily practice that lasted three years. The artist, who is seventy-seven, has kept the series private until now. Sixty stunning excerpts are on view in this powerful show, which is installed intuitively rather than chronologically, portraying life as a cyclical drama of dual realities: human and animal, waking and dreaming, political and erotic, brutal and beautiful.
