  • HEYDER ALIYEV CENTRE, Azerbaijan Zaha Hadid Architects Background in 2013, the Heydar Aliyev Center Opened to the Public in Baku, the Capital of Azerbaijan
    HEYDER ALIYEV CENTRE, Azerbaijan Zaha Hadid Architects Background In 2013, the Heydar Aliyev Center opened to the public in Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan. The cultural center, designed by Zaha Hadid, has become the primary building for the nation's cultural programs, aspiring instead to express the sensibilities of Azeri culture and the optimism of a nation that looks to the future. This report presents a case study of the project. It will include the background information, a synopsis of the architect's mastery of structural design. Also, some special elements of this building will be discussed in detail. And the structural design of the whole complex will be reviewed through diagrams and the simplified computer-based structural analysis. The Heydar Aliyev Center Since 1991, Azerbaijan has been working on modernizing and developing Baku’s infrastructure and architecture in order to depart from its legacy of normative Soviet Modernism. The center is named for Heydar Aliyev, the leader of Soviet-era Azerbaijan from 1969 to 1982, and President of Azerbaijan from October 1993 to October 2003. The project is located in the center of the city. And it played an extremely important role in the development of the city. It breaks from the rigid and often monumental Soviet architecture that is so prevalent in Baku. More importantly, it is a symbol of democratic philosophy thought. Under the influence of the new Azerbaijan party and the Soviet Socialist Republic of Azerbaijan leader’s political and economic reform, the center was also designed to show the potential of the country’s future cultural development, to encourage people to study the history, language, culture, national creed and spiritual values of their own country.

  • Azerbaijani Ritual Shadda Carpets As Guarder of the People's Oral Heritage
    Azerbaijani Ritual Shadda Carpets as Guarder of the People’s Oral Heritage By Roya Taghiyeva Doctor of Arts Director of Azerbaijani Carpet State Museum Baku, Azerbaijan [email protected] Paper presented for the conference "Can Oral History Make Objects Speak?", Nafplion, Greece. October 18-21, 2005. ____________________________________________________________________ During a history of any people, there has developed the field of art in which its rich spiritual world is reflected. Such art embodies typical features of a nation’s character, intellect, world out-looking, aesthetics and philosophy. For Azerbaijani people, this kind of art is carpet making the origin of which goes back the very ancient times. Figuratively, any place where an Azerbaijani spread his carpet became his home. He used it to cover and decorate his home inside and outside. Carpets served him as furniture. He hung them on walls and spread on the floor. He used it as a bag on his road. He made of them both clothing and horsecloth. He protected his horse with the carpet when it was cold and hot. As a matter of fact, Azerbaijani was born and buried on the carpet. At the same time, colourfully patterned carpets were intended to feast his eyes. According to archaeological findings, as early about 2000 B.C. the population of Azerbaijan could make various household items from carpet fabric distinguished with their high technological and artistic dignity. In the 5 century B.C, Xenophont described customs of using carpets in everyday life by Azerbaijani people. Herodot ___________________________________________________________________________________ ICME papers 2005 1 http://icme.icom.museum mentioned the ability of Azerbaijanis to make a wide range of colours from plant dyes.

  • Magic Carpet Ride
    Magic Carpet Ride The Pazyryk Carpet is the world's oldest pile rug. It was found in a burial mound in the Pazyryk Valley in Siberia. Experts agree that it was most likely not made there, rather Persia or Armenia. They have dated it to some time in the 4th or 5th Century BCE (about 2,500 years old). https://www.mattcamron.com/ blog/the-worlds-oldest-rug-the- pazyryk-rug This Persian carpet dates back to the year 946. It took three years for five weavers to complete the carpet, which was ordered by Shah Tahmasp for the Sheikh Safi mosque. https://www.carpetencyclopedia.com/ Azerbaijan Carpet Museum https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ai2hDCHSPRw https://www.advantour.com/azerbaijan/handcrafts/carpets.htm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azerbaijani_rug wool dying https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qq94Hvsx46k Motifs https://www.orientalrugsalon.com/interpreting-rug-designs/ Faig Ahmed (1982- https://www.faigahmed.com https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=nT9PwBqDDMw https://www.shangrilahawaii.org/ visit/residencies/faig-ahmed/ Faig Ahmed is an Azerbaijani contemporary visual artist who is best known for his surrealist weavings which integrate visual distortions into traditional oriental rugs. Afghan War Rugs Since the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 and continuing today, traditional Afghan rug weavers have incorporated stylized representations of political figures, Kalashnikovs, flags, maps, architectural landmarks, tanks, drones and ammunition amid colorful floral and geometric patterns; designs reflecting a reality familiar to the people of this multi-generational war-torn region. In 1971 the Italian conceptual artist Alighieri Boetti (1940-1994) began commissioning Afghan weavers to produce a series of map textiles originally inspired by his collected newspaper illustrations of the Arab-Israeli Six-Day War (1967).
