# Event Details - **Event Name**: Art Opening: Reza- Living in the Fault Lines - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 17 Apr, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Fri, 17 Apr, 2026 at 08:30 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: Retrospective of the work of the legendary photojournalistAbout this EventLiving in the Fault Lines is not about the moment the earthquake happens, but about the fault lines: slow movements of fracture that form gradually until they profoundly alter the very structure of the ground. In these zones of active tension, forces accumulate and it is impossible to foresee either the moment or the form that the rupture might take.Reza’s photographs make perceptible the singular relation that these fault lines entertain with time. They inscribe duration, the slow, often invisible accumulation of tensions, while also sustaining a form of immediacy: that of an exposed present, constantly on the verge of disintegration. To live within fault lines is thus to inhabit the very heart of crisis and its longue durée, and to remain exposed to instability while continuing, nonetheless, to dwell within it.Far from signifying fragility, this condition reveals an active and embodied force. The dignity of the subjects photographed by Reza is not about moral elevation or heroism, but rather about the capacity to persist under pressure, up to the point where transformation becomes inevitable.This exhibition attends to these underground movements across multiple scales — geological, political, affective, and corporeal — that precede, accompany, or exceed the visible forms of fractures. It does not present revolt as a singular and decisive instant, but as an accumulation of shared rhythms; a process that stretches out over time, in which the persistence of those who continue to live, create, and refuse gradually sediments.Artist Statement“The World is my field of vision. From war to peace, from the unspeakable to moments of poetry, my images are testimonies of humankind.” — RezaAcross more than three decades of work in over a hundred countries, I have witnessed war, exile, and political collapse. In places where language falters, the image, intimate or monumental, becomes the medium that renders visible their destructive imprints on human lives. When unmediated by the extractive and appropriating lens of sensationalism, photographs create a bridge between everyday existences marked by conflict and those who witness them from afar.My practice of photography aims to transcend mere documentation: in 2001, I founded the NGO Ainaworld in Afghanistan, which provides media training to over a thousand women and children.While I pursue my reportage, I conduct workshops on the language of images through my association, Reza Visual Academy. I work with refugees, urban youths in Europe and others from disadvantaged backgrounds, educating children on environmental issues and cultural diversity through international photo contests such as Children's Eyes on Earth and Youth Eyes on the Silkroad with UNESCO. Education is the ethical continuation of my work. To teach someone to see is to expand their power to speak, to narrate and to exist autonomously on the international scene.My work move across scales and media, from reportage to books, documentaries, and large installations. In the street, on a museum wall, along a riverbank, within prisons or on the fences of public gardens, my photographs invite encounters across borders, cultures, and political divides.The exhibition is curated by Charli Sas and is made possible by Pascale Richard - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/new-york/art-opening-reza-living-in-the-fault-lines/100001985407643708 - **Event Categories**: art, workshops, exhibitions, literary-art, contests - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: New York - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: La Maison Française NYU - **lat**: 40.731147 - **long**: -73.995378 - **full address**: La Maison Française NYU, 16 Washington Mews, New York, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Art Opening: Reza- Living in the Fault Lines - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/12fafc826ee5ee1570c72bfe2fc972a56c63c2b8d631796fe72547a5beefd8de-rimg-w1200-h803-dcbc9266-gmir.jpg?v=1773864381 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Art Opening: Reza- Living in the Fault Lines being held? - **A:** Art Opening: Reza- Living in the Fault Lines takes place on Fri, 17 Apr, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Fri, 17 Apr, 2026 at 08:30 pm at La Maison Française NYU, 16 Washington Mews, New York, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Art Opening: Reza- Living in the Fault Lines? - **A:** Art Opening: Reza- Living in the Fault Lines is organized by La Maison Française of NYU. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
