Biography
Years before his birth, his father left the village and migrated to Sabzevar. His childhood and adolescence passed in Sabzevar, and the summers often spent spends his in his ancestral village, the Diander, the work and the circulation among the villagers. His ancestral village, a paradise located in Sabzevar, was the first source of inspiration for paintings and designs. With the end of the high school period in 1976, the first individual exhibition of Divandari in the basement of the culture and art of Sabzevar, which had a more independent state and was supposed to establish the Kavir Gallery, was established, but with opposition of some, the Desert Gallery did not form a long time Divandari to Tehran.

The first signs of his presence in the press were also related to the same year, which was published by a plan on September 21, 1976 on the 3rd Kayhan newspaper number 9970. He entered the Faculty of Fine Arts in Tehran University in 1979, and began studying in graphic field. After the Cultural Revolution in universities, he returned to university in 1987, but 1991 in the last semester, the university left. Divandari with the establishment of Institute of Graphic Design of Iran in 1984, a more formal form to its graphical activities, and more than 30 posters were designed and implemented for Iran’s expensive community. He also worked as a graphic designer in the years 1990 to 1996 with the well-being and management knowledge. Divandari the 2001 International Graphic Humor Award of the Forte Museum dei Marmi Italy for its collections and activities.
The Divandari reputation is more due to the acquisition of numerous prizes in world exhibitions. He is from the first Iranian campaign to take part in international exhibitions from 1990, and over the course of several years he has won several awards, with the acquisition of 42 World Awards and an internal prize, published its works in 34 countries; he was hailed as the most honored exhibition cartoonist of the 1970s. In 1997, Divandari as secretary and chief executive Director of the first international Human cartoon Festival and Nature in Iran and in the same year traveling to the Netherlands as the first work of Iranian, the company participated in the annual meeting of the directors of European associations.

During his years of activity, he was a member of the jury in several cartoons exhibitions in Iran and Turkey, and published his works in exhibitions, magazines and newspapers 34 countries. He also formed a larger group of theatres and engaged in the design of the scene. The poster designed presentations and the members of the group were distributing in Sabzevar. From the earliest plays by the larger group on the scene, the alien, the Cage, is Adam, and the exception and the rule. Caricatures he has been in many domestic and international publications, including Hamshahri, Iran, Azad, Tavaana, solidarity, call of Qmes, Mahak, Mehr, weekly information, Akhtar, urban development, comic World, Rune World, Book of the Week, Sunflower, Nowruz, Iran News, Day message, new message, New life, new jasmine, humor and Caricature, nation, trust, statue, Gol Agha, east, the green Word and law, I am an Hua object جیه (漫画世界), my two-man io Hua (都市漫聿畫) and Jean Gu I Hua (中国漫画) in China, Остен, a Перець in Ukraine, La Stampa in Italy, Herêmî in Kurdistan, Penstuff in America and.

Divandari, about the first signs of his interest in the design says: Very soon opened the reigned painting in my heart. My first incentive in visual arts and especially painting was my mother. I learned komposision from the father of my teeth and I have a taste of humor from my grandfather (to Khorasani i.e. grandfather). The people of our village in their behavior and speech have a sharp humor that penetrates the bone marrow and if one is not overwhelming, it may be unconscious suicide. I believe the addressing cartoon is finally transferring to the its audience. Cartoon is a bitter and sweet extract of human thought and expressing most of themes with minimal materials (pen and paper) at the maximum circulation in the contemporary world. During its years of activity, he also has been drawing alongside cartoons and graphic design. In the mid-eighties, cartoons gave his second preference and further paid to painting. Surrealism, Action painting, Cubism, and abstract are among the most important styles in which he has dealt more in his collection and often work with oil and acrylic techniques on canvas and fiber. To date, the complete exhibition of Divandari paintings in Iran has not been established but some of them are showcased in the international Exhibition of the comic and press-san-le-Martel in France.
According to him, an Iranian artist has three major ways to present his work, first to show his works in a gallery, the second is to print them in a publication or book, and the Third way of participating in domestic and international collective fairs; In the present situation, the easiest and the most accessible way to have a healthy and artistic one is a cartoon, while maintaining personal independence, is participation in prestigious world exhibitions. However, however, Divandari has never participated in any of the two periods of Iran’s cartoon, and the cause of this withdrew from the internal arena is the most preferred of Iran’s Iranian association on Biennial Holding. He is among the few who have insisted on the necessity of establishing this society in these years. Divandari in an interview on this issue, the most important job of this association is to approve regulations for observing the rights of Labor in the press of Iran, and says: Unfortunately, there is no legal tariff in our work. While there are a lot of seemingly reputable newspapers in our country, but in these cases, they are strongly inhumane and unethical. A valid publication is a journal that itemauthors the rights of all their own, including authors, designers, and photographers. Unfortunately, however, the axioms are not clear for them that each work should be called the owner’s name, without the permission of the work, do not print it, or do not change the work without the permission of scissors. Some of them claim that they want to promote visual arts, while they openly violate the material and spiritual rights of artists.
From The Look of Others
There are two different perspectives in the opinion of the Divandari, a group of them believe that he has never been in the visual language and is more instinctive than the technical, in various works of changing the tone and style of data and from these scattered pieces can hardly be a character puzzle and His thoughts completed and spoke of something as a Divandari style in the design. In contrast to this, another view of his caricatures is technically capable of power in the design, the prolific, along with the ability to hatch and eye-catching compositions, and believe that his works, rather than the caricature exaggeration, is most of the designs that combine, with the S Using the techniques of conflict, inconsistency, heterogeneity and imbalance, the cartoon makes.
In the gathering of these views and looking at a more general collection, he can be found that Divandari in his work and sometimes test and error. A design with a single subject runs several times with different techniques and is subject to the arbitration of World exhibitions. What is more recognizable in the mental process of this artist is its periodic use of a particular element (element, motif, symbol) in different conditions and situations. By touching the book of Smiles Divandari, we can find a series of designs that use a single symbol, for example, the collection of Darabad, chairs, coffins, sheep, ants, planes, knights and… In the other hand, many do not bullying and individual in any group. Some believe that the Divandari use of symbols did not cause him to be biased towards a two-sided and multiple expression, the apparent humor of his works is nowhere to be left of his work, and it can be caricatures to his constant presence in the global cartoon arena, he has made his own explicit More pleasant. But in examining his caricatures, he should not neglect that Divandari was not guided to festivals, but was not far from pulling cartoons with political and social impasse. His works are not limited to a particular style and do not follow a single technique, sometimes with oil paints, sometimes acrylic, Colored pencils, watercolor, RAPI, canvas, fiber, cardboard, fabrics and even in some works by sticking the carpet on the canvas to the viewer. Some of his works are hardly limited to one of the areas of illustration, cartoons or paintings, but also a combination of them. But aside from these different visual forms, and the lack of lightness of the unit, which can be named as Divandari style, there is a common theme in the collections of his works to complete the character puzzle and his thoughts.
