Amirali Ghasemi (Persian: امیرعلی قاسمی) is an Iranian independent curator, media artist, and graphic designer based in Tehran and Berlin.[1] He is the founder and director of Parkingallery, an art space in Tehran that has established itself as an accessible platform for young Iranian contemporary artists.[2][3] He also founded New Media Society and focuses on his curatorial projects at New Media Society and Tamaas Foundation for Media Arts.[4]
He has worked at both art production and curating with the intention of showing aspects of Contemporary art in Iran that do not fall into the trope of what he calls, Chador art or stereotypes of life in Iran packaged for foreign consumption.[5]
