KHAJAVI, Jahan
The Rubaiyat of Gianni Politi

The Rubaiyat of Gianni Politi is a collection of forty-three ruba’i–a traditional Persian poetic form–made by poet Jahan Khajavi using exclusively the titles of Politi’s works, from 2012 to the present. The artist’s only request to the poet was to use all of them without editing or cutting them, using the collage technique.

Jahan Khajavi (born 1986) is a poet from Fresno, California, based in Rome; Gianni Politi (born 1986) is a painter from Rome, Italy, based in Rome.
