TEHRAN – The French composer and multimedia artist Stéphane de Gérando is scheduled to stage a projection mapping performance on Tehran’s Azadi Tower tonight.

The performance entitled “The Labyrinth of Time and Azadi Tower” will begin at 9 p.m., the Azadi Art and Cultural Complex announced during a press conference on Wednesday.

The program has been organized in collaboration with the Embassy of France.

“It is an honor to be with you here,” De Gérando said at the press conference.

“Iran enjoys a unique culture and kind people,” he added.

He said that the projection mapping has been designed at the Music Museum of Iran and the University of Tehran.
