12³ is an unusual art project involving a relentless organizer, a furniture designer, a pioneering group of artists and a galley-as-playground. Each artist was given a chair and a cube to work on, and challenged to think of them as blank canvases. Individually, the pieces reflect each artist’s take on the challenge; together, they tell a short story of time-specific cooperation. Trans-generational – from celebrated figures to the new generation of Iranian artists – the project reveals the creativity that emerges when art is looked at as a game.
