”Dena”
is the name of a beautiful mountain peak in Iran. It is
also a female name in Persian.
”Dena Group” were inspired to use this name, because
they are a group of contemporary Iranian women artists.
”Dena” represents both the feminine and Persian
aspects of their group, and also their great reverence for
nature, the primary mother of all creation and creativity.
The purpose of ”Dena” is to promote the works of
contemporary Iranian women artists in Iran and abroad
through national and international group exhibitions and
exchanges.
Their group consists of some well known and also some
