Reproduction of Scenes Applied in Fatimid Islamic Ceramics with Contemporary Ceramic Models Journal of Xi'an University of Architecture & Technology ISSN No : 1006-7930 Reproduction of Scenes Applied in Fatimid Islamic Ceramics with Contemporary Ceramic Models ((An Applied Research)) Hanan Hamed Hamza Department of Fine Arts, College of Fine Arts, University of Babylon, Iraq Abstract The researcher's reference to the importance of ceramics as an applied study and its link with technological and contemporary aspects and renewal and the importance of Islamic art and aspects of Islamic thought and art from the prohibition and flattening came to the importance of research through investment. Vocabulary of Fatimid Islamic art to produce contemporary ceramic models, and thus the research will be an important tributary of the mixture of the past and the present for all those interested in history and ceramics, and students of colleges of fine arts and institutes. The research was divided into four chapters, the first chapter included the research problem that summarizes the following question (Is it possible to reproduce the vocabulary of a thousand clay in contemporary ceramic models?). It included the importance of research, the need for it, its goal, its limitations, and the definition of terms contained therein. As for the second chapter, it included the theoretical framework that included three topics: The first topic included Islamic art, aspects of prevention, avoiding embodiment and color, the extent of accompanying flatness, and the accompanying display mechanisms at all levels in painting, decoration and ceramics. There is also a very important point of widespread Islamic art where it was believed to be a spiritual metaphysical Islamic decoration is a clear sign of the second Islamic art. The icons contain a treasury in the Fatimid mind called Fatimah in connection with the Fatimid state, a group of ceramic models from the Fatimid period as well. The third topic is contemporary Iraqi ceramics and its origins, which leads to the output of the most important indicators of the theoretical framework. The third chapter included: From a practical point of view, the research procedures included preparing the clay to the selection of the three samples to the beginning of the planning and work process, as well as adopting the oxide mixture to give the spiritual actions of the foot a great aesthetic effect on the final product of the works. Chapter four included: the results of the research, conclusions and recommendations. Chapter one, the methodological framework First: the research problem The art of ceramics is one of the oldest arts known to mankind, as it is a way to express the love of human emotion and feelings despite the fact that the first experiences in ancient Iraqi civilization that are the cradle of civilization were silly, irregular and functional models used Volume XII, Issue IV, 2020 Page No: 4776 Journal of Xi'an University of Architecture & Technology ISSN No : 1006-7930 and after the piece works to develop the design and implementation of these models to become more accurate in ceramic colors Multiple model one, and the spectrum is due to the evolution of ceramics in terms of shape and color due to technological development and we see it clearly when discovering the pottery wheel, the wheel of civilization is called the degree of development of the ceramic model regardless of that function was the storage of water, food and love in terms of Life has become easier with the passage of time, the development of unpopular art and pottery appeared to keep pace with the victory in the development of different civilizations, because the first manifestations of Islamic art are a forbidden phenomenon and move away from the embodiment of crime. General, and in turn, this is reflected in the art of ceramics, because it is always in sync with the development that has occurred in various civilizations throughout the ages to the present day. Islamic art witnessed every year, and the Fatimid period in particular appeared in the so-called Fatimid ceramics because of its specificity in design, composition and coloring, including in the form of plates and utensils, and the ability of pottery in the Fatimid period to make a synthesis between the decorative element and Arabic calligraphy and the nature of design and color used to highlight models Very cool, so it can be summarized in the following current questions: Can Fatimid porcelain vocabulary be reproduced in contemporary ceramic models? Second: The importance of research and the need for it The importance of the current research is demonstrated by investing vocabulary from Fatimid Islamic art to produce contemporary ceramic models. Thus, the research will be an important tributary to the combination of past and present. Third: The research goal Producing contemporary designs on the body and shape to give a contemporary feature to the Fatimid ceramics. Fourth: Search limits Time limits: 2019 - 2020. Spatial boundaries: Babylon - Iraq. Thematic limits: The reproduction of the Fatimid porcelain vocabulary into contemporary ceramic models. Fifth: Defining the terms: Production: By “production”, it is a term. What a nation makes of wealth and what it extracts from the ground. What is meant by “productivity” is that effectiveness in investing resources and using them. As for the level of productivity, it is determined on the basis of the efficiency criterion. But this does not mean that an agreement on Determine The concept of productivity holds for researchers of this concept, and they are many and belong to a sister of different syphilis.

(Contemporary ceramic models) Procedural definition: (It is a design that takes into account renewal and accompaniment, whether it is a stereoscopic or mural, and the use of decorative vocabulary dating back to the Fatimid Islamic ceramics while preserving The peculiarity of that era. Chapter two theoretical framework The first topic: Islamic art Islamic civilization is considered one of the most important human civilizations that history has known in terms of its original tributaries, whose children have been preserved and documented by their children. Creative achievements have evolved with different literature and arts, and excel through new faith in his personality that resembles Islamic thought. Through the system of Islamic philosophy, the artist created his vision of life and the universe. In presenting his creative hatred through his accomplishments and effects that he left for us to take from them and clean them in a way that serves what is after us, explains the situation without translating it into an artistic language that embodies it, and this is engineering inspiration (2) He also witnessed an active presence in art schools that were known in Islamic times, including In that the Fatimids, due to the expressive energies that he carried, worked on the dynamic data of the artwork with the elements of his problem and produced many artworks on the intellectual side, and the artist took into account a situation such as controversy and became and the transformation that is related to the concepts of transition from sensual (abstract), and this within What in Islamic art data sees as it relates to art. (3) It differs from other ancient arts because it is one of the most widespread arts, because the Islamic imperial patch is wide and has extended from China in the east to Spain in the west, and this expansion has led to a difference in the styles and arts of its different peoples, and for this, we will notice a clear difference in some elements And the methods of these technical schools. The Islamic structures in which they were formed, and despite this partial difference, we will notice that these arts resemble their origins, and merge with the Islamic religion from which it produced a new art called Islamic Art. (4) It was also distinguished as decorative art, as the Muslim artist took advantage of all the elements that were considered, whether it was vegetable, animal or human, and this is to achieve his decorative goals, so he works to adapt these elements and keep away from their natural image because they sometimes make us unable to infer the origin and sources of these elements, and not only was he convinced of that but also benefited from Arabic writing in the same coordination, so he installed and mixed elements in many subjects, who wanted to combine his artworks with all its elements and units, to show the artwork in any glamor and beauty. (5) Philosophers defined Islamic art as a material expression of a religious belief in man, and this Volume XII, Issue IV, 2020 Page No: 4778 Journal of Xi'an University of Architecture & Technology ISSN No : 1006-7930 religion and art are twins from the beginning. Art is born in most cases through the service of religion, so the images of the gods, statues, places of worship and their requirements from the beginning were one of the most important aspects of art, and he had an attitude towards the applied arts. He uses it in his religious rituals. (6) Islamic art grew and flourished in the Middle East. As for architecture, sculpture, and painting, the foundations of the art of all kinds were known to the Europeans (7). Adha relied on aspects of it, and he built and formed on many aspects of which the most important was a spiritual art, and Adaollartqa Pellnvs urged man to think about the greatness of the Creator and his ability to build a creature, it is the art of materials, and also adopts tools and functions of tools in society, because it is related to people's daily life and dealings Art was building his thoughts on what the concept of Islam depended on, because Islam was part of the concept of art, and it was a continuation of a new form of Arab art before Islam.

  • 13 Early Islamic
    Part Three Fatimid Egypt and the Muslim West Chapter XIII Imperial and Urban Art in Islam: The Subject- Matter of Fatimid Art* The Fatimid period in Egypt has long been a puzzling one not only to the cultural historian but also to the art historian, and it may be worthwhile at the outset to define some of the apparent features of the puzzle. Three of these seem to me of primary significance. The first concerns the time of the dynasty. If we disregard its early decades in Ifriqiya, it was in 969 that the occupation of Egypt and the ceremonial foundation of Cairo symbolized the transformation of a comparatively remote heterodox dynasty with far- flung “underground” connections into a major empire. The time of this transformation followed the political and social decadence of ‘Abbasid Iraq and preceded by a few decades the fall of the Umayyad dynasty of Spain as well as the slow and still very poorly known rise of the new Turkish- centered Muslim world in northeastern Iran. For a century or so, at least until the Seljuq successes of the middle of the eleventh century, only Fatimid Egypt existed as a strong and purposeful force in the whole of Islam and one can appropriately wonder whether Egypt did not become for a century the place to which artists and artisans came from all over and therefore a creative center with an impact throughout the dar al-Islam. With the great crisis which shook Egypt between 1052 and 1072 (and about which more will be said later), with the Crusades, and with the establishment of Seljuq power in Iran and Iraq, the second century of Fatimid rule was certainly not as successful politically, but artistic growth does not always coincide with political strength and quite frequently the arts, especially the industrial arts so characteristic of medieval Islam, followed and were influenced by ideas and patterns developed during periods of strength.

  • Ahlesunnah Library ( Nmusba.Wordpress.Com ) Like Alexander Or Caesar, the Name of Saladin Carries a Timeless Quality
    AhleSunnah Library ( nmusba.wordpress.com ) Like Alexander or Caesar, the name of Saladin carries a timeless quality. As famous today as he was when he drove the Crusaders out of Jerusalem, the historical Saladin has dissolved into legend with each generation's retelling of his story. Dante placed him in the first circle of Hell with the heroes of Troy and Rome; Rex Harrison played him as a cad in the film King Richard and the Crusaders. In Youssef Chahine's epic film Saladin, he emerged as a hero of Arab socialism, and he has even made an appearance in an episode of Dr Who. Today, Saladin's name continues to resonate with Osama bin Laden, Saddam Hussein and Colonel Gaddafi all, at one stage, claiming to be his military and spiritual heir. But who was the real Saladin? To answer this question, A. R. Azzam argues, it is essential to appreciate the age Saladin lived in. The Islamic world had been completely transformed by the Sunni Revival in the 10th and 11th centuries, the great intellectual renaissance, which integrated the different strands of Islamic thought under one orthodox umbrella. Saladin was a child of the Sunni Revival and the movement was key to his extraordinary success - as it is to any consideration of the background of today's Middle East. In that sense, Saladin's true greatness, Azzam contends, lay not on the battlefield, as has commonly been accepted, but in his spiritual and political vision. An honest and guileless leader, Saladin baffled his enemies by refusing to play their political games and succeeded in uniting an army from all parts of the Muslim world.

  • The Three Caliphates, a Comparative Approach
    9 The Three Caliphates, a Comparative Approach Glaire D. Anderson and Jennifer Pruitt Introduction By the end of the ninth century a shared international Islamic visual language, exhibiting local variations but recognizably engaged with models established by the Abbasid caliphal court, was established across the Islamic empire and evident in broad trends in urbanism, architecture, portable objects, and material culture (Hoffman 2008: 107–108; Saba 2012: 187–190). Comparable perhaps to the development and subsequent spread of the Romanesque and Gothic modes across Europe, the early caliphal period of the ninth and tenth centuries is marked by similarities in overall concepts and visual modes, which found expression in the imperial capitals of Baghdad and Samarra, and subsequently in Cordoba and Cairo. Monuments and artistic developments of the caliphal courts were, however, indebted to regional practices and materials as well as expressive of negotiations between factional dynastic and pan‐Islamic trends. The appearance of the Fatimid dynasty (r. 909–1171) in North Africa made explicit the political and religious fragmentation of the caliphal lands. At this time, the Fatimids challenged Abbasid religious and political hegemony, declaring their rival Shiʿi caliphate in 909. The emergence of this Fatimid claim to the caliphate was a catalyst in the Cordoban Umayyads’ (r. 756–1031) subsequent assumption, after centuries as a semi‐independent emirate, of caliphal authority in 929. Thus for the very specific period between 909 and 1031 (the year when the Cordoban caliphate was dissolved) the Islamic lands witnessed an unprecedented contest for caliphal authority, a contest in which art and architecture played a major role.

    مجلة العمارة والفنون العدد السادس عشر Identity and its reflection on the design and forming in Islamic design Assoc. Prof. Dr. Dalia Sami Thabet Georgy Associate Professor in Interior Design and furniture - Faculty of Applied arts [email protected] [email protected] Abstract One philosopher saw that values can only be understood in terms of what people feel. Even the creative process is linked to man, society, age and its roots in history and the reason for our interest in history stems from our understanding of art on the basis that the contemporary artist does not start from emptiness; it is a broad and fertile human accumulation For thousands of years through the attempts of many people and continue to understand the world. This understanding is often the result of the interaction between the individual and social dimensions of heritage and contemporary, based on the history that cannot be ignored in the creative process and the recognition of art in the greatest achievements of great artists including the attraction and genius of history and the subject does not stop at this point but should Taking into account contemporary trends to deal with designs to achieve sustainability and preservation of natural conditions and the environment and urban areas, which creates special features interact with tourists as a result affects the mental image surrounding some of the tourist areas to become one of the factors Attractions in these areas so that any country can obtain a competitive advantage through the development of designs
