  • Interview with Bahman Jalali1
    11 Interview with Bahman Jalali1 By Catherine David2 Catherine David: Among all the Muslim countries, it seems that it was in Iran where photography was first developed immediately after its invention – and was most inventive. Bahman Jalali: Yes, it arrived in Iran just eight years after its invention. Invention is one thing, what about collecting? When did collecting photographs beyond family albums begin in Iran? When did gathering, studying and curating for archives and museum exhibitions begin? When did these images gain value? And when do the first photography collections date back to? The problem in Iran is that every time a new regime is established after any political change or revolution – and it has been this way since the emperor Cyrus – it has always tried to destroy any evidence of previous rulers. The paintings in Esfahan at Chehel Sotoon3 (Forty Pillars) have five or six layers on top of each other, each person painting their own version on top of the last. In Iran, there is outrage at the previous system. Photography grew during the Qajar era until Ahmad Shah Qajar,4 and then Reza Shah5 of the Pahlavi dynasty. Reza Shah held a grudge against the Qajars and so during the Pahlavi reign anything from the Qajar era was forbidden. It is said that Reza Shah trampled over fifteen thousand glass [photographic] plates in one day at the Golestan Palace,6 shattering them all. Before the 1979 revolution, there was only one book in print by Badri Atabai, with a few photographs from the Qajar era. Every other photography book has been printed since the revolution, including the late Dr Zoka’s7 book, the Afshar book, and Semsar’s book, all printed after the revolution8.

  • THE SOCIETY for ASIAN ART PRESENTS Through the Pishtaq: Art, Architecture and Culture of Persia APRIL 22 - MAY 9, 2018
    THE SOCIETY FOR ASIAN ART PRESENTS Through the Pishtaq: Art, Architecture and Culture of Persia APRIL 22 - MAY 9, 2018 More than five hundred years before Christ, Cyrus the Great founded one of the world’s first empires at Pasargadae. Over the centuries Persian civilization has been impacted by diverse cultural influences from invading Greeks, Arabs, Mongols and Turks. Join Dr. Keelan Overton on a journey through Iran where impressive monuments serve as vivid testament to the extraordinary history and culture of the country. The name Persia, used by the ancient Greeks, is derived from the southwesterly province of Pars which was the cradle of the Persian Empire. It was here that the Achaemenids became the first kings of a united country. They built capitals at Pasargadae and Persepolis and ruled over territory which stretched from the Persian Gulf to the Black Sea and from China in the east to the Mediterranean shores in the west. It is a welcoming and beautiful country of contrasts, of jagged mountains and golden deserts punctuated by slender wind towers, crumbling clay-baked caravansaries, and everywhere a horizon pierced by mosques and turquoise minarets. ----------------------------------Tour Highlights -------------------------------------- Tehran– 3 nights Visit Jameh Atigh, 9th c.

    ARTA 2004.004 Shahrokh Razmjou Center of Achaemenid Studies National Museum of Iran (Tehran) Project Report of the Persepolis Fortification Tablets in the National Museum of Iran 11 Introduction to the Collection During the excavations of Ernst Herzfeld in Persepolis, an ancient archive of clay tablets was discovered at the northeast corner of the platform, which was a part of the Persepolis fortification system. The collection was sent to the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago for further research. In 1951, after negotiations between the Oriental Institute, the Iranian Embassy in Washington D.C. and André Godard, a part of the collection was sent back to Iran to the Archaeology Office in the then Iran-e Bastan Museum in Tehran. The rest of the collection, apart from 300 tablets returned in April 2004, still resides in Chicago for translation and further research. Achemenet août 2004 1 ARTA 2004.004 The part of the collection that was sent back to Iran included 3 wooden crates, containing 235 small boxes of tablet fragments. They were sent to Iran by ship via the Persian Gulf. The three crates were marked with numbers 1, 2, 3. Their dimensions, as appears from the OI records, were: Crate 1: 33 x 25 x 19.5 inches (83.82 x 63.5 x 49.5 cm) 260 lbs (117.93 kilos) Crate 2: 33 x 25 x 19.5 inches (83.82 x 63.5 x 49.5 cm) 305 lbs (138.34 kilos) Crate 3: 30.5 x 22 x 21.5 inches (77.47 x 55.88 x 54.61) 215 lbs (97.52 kilos) Each of the crates would have been marked on the outside with black ink to André Godard in the Iran-e Bastan Museum with the address: Archaeological Service Musée de Tehran Tehran, Iran Attn.: Mr.
