  • 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 arrival of modernism to Iran has influenced the spatial organization of Tehran since the late Qajar era. To clarify these changes, the present study aims to compare Isfahan style and Tehran style to show the evolution of squares from the Safavid to the first Pahlavi era. This study was performed in an interpretative- historical method and focused on squares in two styles of Isfahan and Tehran. In this study, Inductive and comparative approaches and the case studies of each style were used for interpretations and conclusions.

NAZAR Research Centre, Tehran, Iran [email protected] ABSTRACT This study initially defines vitality; next, Tehran historical areas are introduced as case study. The research applied QSPM and IEA methodologies (internal and external analysis). A proper strategic area- a stable area (weakness and opportunity) to improve vitality in the historical zones of Tehran was determined once strengths and weaknesses as well as opportunities and threats were investigated. Then, three strategies were proposed to achieve this object. The best strategy based on informed, positive and active participation of people was adopted using QSPM matrix. In this regard, the strategies such as regular interaction and cooperation among people and officials were offered. Keywords: Vitality, historical context. Tehran 1.INTRODUCTION Tehran was chosen as the capital city at the time of Āghā Moḥammad Khān Qājār; however, it has a history of Safavid era. There remained many Qajar monuments in Tehran including Shams Al-Emare, The Golestan Palace (Roseland Palace), The Sa'dabad Complex, Bazar, etc. However, these historical and cultural treasures are ignored due to rapid growth of urbanization and human involvement in mechanical life. On the other side, Tehran and its historical zones is filled with the opportunities by which the historical part of city is resuscitated and the injected by vitality .

  • Earthquake Risk Management in Historical and Old Urban Fabrics, Case Study of Tehran Bazaar
    EARTHQUAKE RISK MANAGEMENT IN HISTORICAL AND OLD URBAN FABRICS, CASE STUDY OF TEHRAN BAZAAR Kambod AMINI HOSSEINI1 ABSTRACT Iran as a historical country located in a seismic prone region in the world and has been affected by several destructive earthquakes during its history. These seismic events have affected a lot of old urban fabrics and historical places in this country including Bam Citadel and Tabriz Kabood Mosque, both known as world cultural heritages. In this paper, having a look on the impacts of earthquakes in historical places of Iran, the potential seismic risk in Tehran Bazaar and its surrounding old urban fabrics as well as adjacent cultural heritages sites will be introduced. Furthermore, the potential activities that can be implemented to reduce the earthquake risk and improve emergency response capacities in the region will be discussed. These measures can be implemented in other historical sites all around the world by making some adaptation based on the local conditions. INTRODUCTION Iran is located in an active part of the Alpine-Himalayan Orogenic belt and is considered as one of the seismic prone countries in the world. In this line, several active faults exist in different parts of the country, some shown in Figure 1 (Hessami et al, 2003). Seismicity studies and investigations of historical earthquakes show that the country has been continually affected by earthquakes of different sizes and will undoubtedly experience large earthquakes in the future. The records show that annually in Iran one seismic event with magnitude higher than 6.0 and every ten an event with magnitude of at least 7.0 can be expected (Amini Hosseini et al., 2009).
