Behzad Khosravi Noori

Artistic Research

Artist and Postdoctoral Researcher

Konstfack - University of Arts, Crafts and Design

Behzad Khosravi Noori is an artist, writer, itinerant educator, playground maker, and necromancer. His practice-based research includes films, installations, and archival studies. His works investigate histories from The Global South, labour and the means of production, and histories of political relationships that have existed as a counter narration to the east-west dichotomy during the Cold War and beyond. By bringing multiple subjects into his study, Behzad explores possible correspondences seen through the lenses of contemporary art practice, proletarianism, subalternity, and the technology of image production. He analyses recent history to revisit memories beyond borders, exploring the entanglements and non/aligned memories.

He is working on his postdoc research funded by the Swedish Research Council (VR) at Konstfack – University of Arts, Crafts and Design, Department of Fine Art, Goldsmiths University of London, Department of Fine Art and Habib University, Department of Comparative Humanities in Karachi.
