Acclaimed artist and long-time Sundance alum Shirin Neshat just opened her retrospective Shirin Neshat: I Will Greet the Sun AgainatThe Broad in Los Angeles.

Taking its title from a poem by Iranian poet Forugh Farrokhzad, the exhibition (which presents over 230 photographs and eight immersive video installations works) offers a rare glimpse into the evolution of Neshat’s artistic journey as she explores topics of exile, displacement, and identity with beauty, dynamic formal invention, and poetic grace.

The exhibition is open now through February 16, 2020.
