ARGHAVAN KHOSRAVI: ART SUNDAE
This Art Sundae installation was a collaboration between children and artist Arghavan Khosravi.
On October 2, 2022, Khosravi led a children’s public art-making workshop at Rockefeller Center.
Inspired by Khosravi’s Art in Focus exhibition at Rockefeller Center (on view September 6 - November 10, 2022), participants were invited to work with tile patterns, an element that is featured prominently in Khosravi’s own work. Each child was given a star-shaped tile to paint and then donate to the installation. Following the workshop, these tiles were incorporated into this large-scale window installation conceived of and designed by Khosravi.
Arghavan Khosravi is a US-based Iranian artist known for her sculptural multi-paneled paintings. Symbolism, metaphor, and abstraction are essential aspects of her practice. Khosravi’s Art in Focus exhibition can be found in locations throughout the Center, including murals at 10 Rockefeller Plaza, 30 Rockefeller Plaza, 50 Rockefeller Plaza, the street and concourse levels of 45 Rockefeller Plaza, Top of the Rock, Radio Park and the ZO. Clubhouse, as well as sculptural installations in the lobby of 45 Rockefeller Plaza.
