"This book's intent is to forge a closer connection between the aesthetical and theoretical aspects of Parviz Tanavoli's sculptures. So far, and understandably so, the aesthetic of his art has been at the forefront of most studies. Yet, the philosophical implications and assertions of his work have been less emphasized. The significance of Tanavoli's sculptures are multifaceted and this phenomenon is engendered by the unique manner which he relates the past to the present; essence to experience, and emotion to rationality. The study of metaphor and allegory and the role of the artist in a fragmented universe aims to communicate a few philosophical values embodied in his philosophically multi-pronged forms and creations. Tanavoli's "Heech" series is one example of how his work unveils the depth-structures in the transcendental plays of language and the physical reality of forms. The scope of Tanavoli's fertile creative imagination and its relation to the role of the artist within the frames of sacrifice, individuality, nationalism and universal responsibility have been the focus of this book"--
