Niloufar Banisadr was born in 1973 in Tehran, where she grew up and trained in photography.
She moved to France in 2003, first in Strasbourg and then in Paris, where she deepened her practice of photography. She continues an already fertile production which is exhibited in Dubai, Istanbul but also in Arles and Paris and begins to benefit from visibility in the landscape of photography and Contemporary Art. In 2013, Niloufar Banisadr, who obtained French nationality, participated in the creation of the gallery 55 Bellechasse, inaugurated by the retrospective of 15 years of his work, partly made up of several new series.
The work that Niloufar Banisadr has been building for 22 years goes on with sometimes abstract series, mostly figurative, all linked by the common thread of a certain idea of ​​femininity. Asked about an author's approach perceived as committed and sometimes controversial, Niloufar Banisadr presents it as an introspection on his questions and experiences as a woman, conducted in a narrative and illustrative mode.
Listening to his body but also to the context of his generation in East and West, the expatriate artist does not hesitate to stage himself. Combining self-portraits and dreamlike figures, interpreting his questioning on the “apparent clash of cultures” in Iran, Niloufar Banisadr has established himself as an internationally recognized artist, whose work is exhibited in galleries and museums, both in Miami and in New York than in Basel and Paris.
