14th
pre-congress
of
"Kerman
Art in
Safavid
era"
was held
on
November
28 at
Shahid
Bahonar
University
in
Kerman.
As
reported
by the
Public
Relations
of the
Academy
of Arts,
the
ceremony
kicked
off at
10.30
a.m. at
the
public
hall of
Shahid
Bahonar
University
in
Kerman.
At
first,
the
chairman
of
Shahid
Bahonar
University
in
Kerman,
Dr.
Amiri
Khorasani
greeted
the
attendants
and
presented
a brief
history
of the
university:
"Everybody
knows
that in
our
history,
Safavid
era is a
unique
age.
It's
possible
to say
that the
interaction
of
politics
and
religion
was
formed
in
Safavid
era for
the
first
time and
was
followed
in
Afsharieh
and
Zandieh
eras,"
he said.
Indicating
to the
historical
and
cultural
changes
in
Safavid
era, Dr.
Khorasani
added,
"When
political
centrality
was made
up in
Isfahan,
the
cities,
adjacent
regions
and the
whole
country
underwent
several
changes.
One of
these
regions
was the
city and
province
of
Kerman.
Today
Kerman
city is
one of
the
three
main
centers
of
tourist
attraction
in the
country
and as
being
said by
the
experts,
generally
the
historical
and
cultural
works
and
heritages
of
Kerman
have
superseded
those in
more
than the
other
provinces."
The
chairman
of
Shahid
Bahonar
University
in
Kerman
concluded:
"The
influences
of
Isfahan
school
on the
city of
Kerman
are
evident,
therefore
we hold
such a
session
to
define
the
status
of
Kerman
city in
Isfahan
school.
We hope
that
through
the
raised
questions,
the
unknown
and
hidden
aspects
of
Kerman
history
and art
will be
revealed
to the
scholars
and
enthusiast
young
people."
Following
the
session,
the
Secretary
of the
Academy
of Arts,
Dr.
Bahman
Namvar
Motlaq
referred
to the
history
and
antiquity
of
Kerman:
"The
first
evidences
of the
civilization
in Iran
plateau
has been
discovered
in this
province
and
Jiroft
city. As
a
province
which
has been
the
intersection
of
various
civilizations,
Kerman
has
played a
remarkable
role in
the
constitution
of
Iranian
culture,"
he said.
Furthermore,
Dr.
Namvar
Motlaq
indicated
to the
contribution
of
Isfahan
School
in the
cultural
formation
of other
historical
cities
and
followed:
"I
should
say that
in an
artistic
research,
all
works
are
collective
and this
point
has been
proved,
even in
poetry
which is
supposed
to be
the
creation
of an
individual
person
who
works in
solitude.
We are
never
alone
and no
work can
be
attributed
to a
single
person.
We live
and work
in a
group
and
society,
even
though
we
presume
ourselves
as
individual
and
solitary,
we are
inheritors
of a
society
which
has
bequeathed
us with
several
pre-texts.
Nowadays
the
concept
of
inter-textuallity
has been
affirmed
that our
activities
have
also
been
influenced
by the
inheritances
left for
us by
our
predecessors."
Having
said
that,
the
secretary
of the
Academy
of Arts
also
pointed
out that
by
Isfahan
School,
we mean
the
consideration
of
historical,
cultural
and
artistic
works
from
1000 A.
H. to
1135
when
Isfahan
was the
capital
of Iran.
When we
speak of
Isfahan
School,
we don't
mean
that the
school
is
entirely
constituted
by
Isfahanis.
Isfahan
School
is the
combination
of works
done by
individuals,
cities
and
schools
which
formerly,
at those
times
and even
as some
scholars
believe,
after
those
times
contributed
to its
formation.
Elaborating
more on
the
Isfahan
School,
Dr.
Bahman
Namvar
Motlaq
said:
"The
Academy
of Arts
tries to
rewrite
and
recognize
the
unwritten,
less
written
or even
badly
written
culture
and art
history.
If the
friends
take a
look at
the
historical
books,
they
will
realize
that
there's
a
prejudice
against
we
Iranians
and the
people
of the
East and
perhaps
even we
should
not have
any
complaint.
we must
start to
work on
history
ourselves,
we must
write
and
research.
We began
to work
on
Isfahan
School,
we
simultaneously
tried to
do
researches
on
various
school
and in
this
line we
observed
the
relation
and
mutual
influences
of
Herat,
Tabriz,
Qazvin
and
Mashhad
schools
through
several
congresses.
The
session
went on
until 5
p.m.,
meanwhile
several
scholars
and
masters,
including
Dr.
Mazaheri,
Dr.
Fath-Ali
Baigi,
Dr.
Mir-Hashem
Mohades,
Dr.
Shams-e
Din
Najmi,
Ali-Reza
Hashemi-Nezhad,
Mahdi
Maki-Nezhad,
Fariba
Kermani,
Mohsen
Keshavarz,
Hassan
Salajeqe
and
Hanyeh
Nikkhah
presented
their
own
views
and
researches. |
