Babak Ganjei: The Outsider

In a new five-part series of films, we examine how the art of breaking rules is critical to artistic practice. In the third film in the series, we invited Babak Ganjei to share his darkly comedic practice and self-professed sitcom lifestyle. With the help of artists featured in our exhibition Beano: The Art of Breaking the Rules, we wanted to explore how creatives are harnessing rebellion in their work. Enter Babak Ganjei, an artist that lives and works in London, and whose practice embraces humour at every turn (Ganjei notably once tried to sell a painting of his credit card back to Barclays for the value of the debt. It didn’t work but he made a “friend”.) Known for his idiosyncratic, text-based paintings, which have come into their own on Instagram, his works are ‘an inner monologue that isn’t an inner monologue anymore’. At the request of the filmmakers, Babak made his own film on why he questions authority. After all, sometimes you need to find new ways of seeing things or doing things and that requires a little bit of rebellion.
