Abbas Kiarostami - Snow White

Tehran-born director Kiarostami is internationally acclaimed for his poetic documentary-style films. In addition to the forty-odd films that have brought him fame, Kiarostami has produced photography, paintings and graphic design. Snow White collects snow-scene photographs taken from 1978 to 2004. These black and white images of deep drifts, dogs and bare trees on snowy hillsides all epitomize the simplicity of Kiarostamis introduction: On a snowy morning I run out, hatless and coatless, happy as a child.
