♪ (TENSE MUSIC PLAYS) ♪ SPEAKER: If you look at
a Nicky Nodjoumi painting, he's speaking about war
and revolutions. What do you see?
The red symbolize power. (PROTESTERS CHANTING) SPEAKER:
He's one of the most important
living artists in our lifetime. SPEAKER 2: The world had never
seen anything like this. REPORTER:
The end of Iran's monarchy
came early today. NICKY NODJOUMI:
We fought for democracy. We have the right
to criticize the government. SPEAKER: He can't even
process the news wit
hout making art about it. NODJOUMI: A friend of mine said, "Get out of the country,
and right away." SPEAKER 3:
He was lucky to have got out. They would have killed him. SPEAKER 4:
(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE) SPEAKER 5: SPEAKER 6: You were the head
of the museum. SPEAKER 7: Right. NODJOUMI: Do you remember what
happened to these paintings? Uh, I don't know.
I have no idea. When he says
he doesn't remember, do you believe that? I don't know. SPEAKER 3: Nikzad was always
a revolutionary. I was
targeted, beaten up,
stabbed with a bayonet. SPEAKER: His art is threatening
to people. It's threatening
to the Iranian establishment. It's also threatening
to people in the west. SPEAKER 6: That exhibition
changed our life forever. They are holding a gun, and, um, suggesting that
it's time to get armed. SPEAKER: It's just a big chunk
of his life that's disappeared. NODJOUMI: You can read
what happened in the revolution through those paintings. I want them back. ♪ (MUSIC CONTINUES) ♪
