In
the
presence
of
masters,
scholars,
experts
and
students,
Isfahan
School
Conference
ended at
Tohid-Khaneh
of
Isfahan
University
of Art.
At the
beginning
of the
ceremony,
the
scholarly
secretary
of
painting
congress
declared
that the
conference
led us
to
review
profoundly
a
section
of our
cultural
issues
and
sources.
"More
than a
hundred
articles
abstracts
were
received
by the
secretariat
of the
painting
congress
and
finally
when
some
volunteers
changed
their
minds
and gave
up, 20
essays
were
selected,"
he said.
"We
intended
to give
lectures
beside
the
Safavid
wall
paintings,
but cold
weather
barred
us. At
painting
department
ten
projects
were
introduced
which in
co-operation
of the
Academy
of Arts,
five of
them
were
five of
them
were
published,"
he
added.
The
secretary
of
literature
department,
Khatami
indicated
to one
of the
objectives
of the
conference
which
was
enlightenment
on Hindi
style
particularly
on
literature,
"Despite
a
widespread
fame,
the
literature
of
Safavid
era was
deprived
of
profound
researches.
I hope
that we
could
have
been
able to
demystify
some
ambiguities
regarding
the
literature
of that
era. At
this
congress
seven
research
projects
were
raised
and some
were
published
as
books,"
he said.
The
secretary
of
wisdom
and
philosophy
department,
Muhammad-Javad
Safian
said:
"Undoubtedly
our
congress
was
successfully
wrapped
up.
After
various
considerations,
we
picked
20
scholarly
essays
which
some had
focused
on the
relation
of art
and
wisdom.
We have
other
six
projects
on
wisdom
and
philosophy
which
all have
been
approved."
Fariba
Afkari,
the
scholarly
secretary
of music
department
of the
conference
stated:
"Since
two
years
ago, the
music
department
of
Isfahan
school
initiated
working
on the
project.
Regarding
the fact
that
there
are very
few
researches
being
done on
music,
we began
to study
several
ancient
texts.
At last
13
essays
presented
at the
congress.
The
majority
of our
researchers
are the
students
of MA or
PhD
levels
and it
is so
promising."
Finally
the
general
secretary
of the
conference,
Bahman
Namvar
Motlaq
indicated
that two
other
congresses
will be
held on
Isfahan
school,
"These
two
congresses
will be
underway
on
Isfahan
school
in
Turkey
and
India.
After
the
Isfahan
School
Grand
Conference,
the
ground
has been
provided
for the
next
sessions
and
congresses,"
he said.
The
ceremony
wrapped
up with
