<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Enghelab Street, or Revolution Street, is located in the center of the Iranian capital Tehran--a main artery in the city's cultural life with a host of bookshops. This book presents a variety of rarely seen photographic and propaganda books collected by Iranian-born, Paris-based artist Hannah Darabi (born 1981), drawing on works published between 1979 and 1983--years corresponding to the short period when freedom of speech prevailed at the end of the Shah's regime and the beginning of the Islamic government. <p/>Darabi takes us to the heart of an intense artistic and cultural period in Iranian history in a visual essay accompanied by a critical essay by Chowra Makaremi. With its revelatory landscape of publications, <i>Enghelab Street: Iran 1979-1983</i> gives us the opportunity to look at rare printed matter for the first time. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[The] network of chapters offers a dynamic interplay that guides us through different interpretations of the work, rather than presenting us with a basic historical overview.--Cat Lachowskyj "LensCulture"<br><br>Engehelab Street, a Revolution through Books: Iran 1979-1983 (Spector Books) is monumental.--Brad Feuerhelm "American Suburb X"<br><br>The book shows activists, photographers, and artist experiment with what a photobook could look like and how it might communicate its intended ideas or messages.-- "Conscientious Photography"<br>
