Iranian designing artist and painter Mehrdad Khataei’s drawing and printmaking works have been selected to be showcased in a gallery in Pennsylvania, United States.

Khataei’s two created works from his collection titled Lost at the Pigsty will be exhibited at the Box Heart Gallery in the city of Pittsburgh.

The biennial exhibition which is titled “Art Inter/National, Here and Abroad… 2013” is also to host some other works by a number of artists from across the world.

While Box Heart encourages diversity in the media, the gallery is programmed to name one artist as the “Artist of the Year” at the end of the show and the winner will be granted a solo exhibition in the 2014.

The “Art Inter/National” exhibition is scheduled to take place from January 8 through February 2, 2013.

Khataei’s print making works along with some works of other five Iranian artists were also selected at the Acqui Terme exhibition in Italy that kicked off on November 27, 2012.
