Acclaimed photographer, poet, and filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami opens the world premiere of Doors Without Keys this week at Toronto’s Aga Khan Museum.
The closed doors — photographed over 20 years in Iran, France, Morocco, and Italy — are printed at life size, mounted on canvas, and arranged like a maze, recalling the labyrinthine streets of an unnamed old city.
Examples of Kiarostami’s body of work as a filmmaker are also part of the exhibition, which continues through March, 2016.

I would love to see this! The images on your post look fantastic, but seeing them life-sized and set up like a maze would take it to another level of awesome. 🙂
This looks wonderful – I’d just been thinking it was time to revisit this museum, & now I know it is!
