  • Desert Utopia: the Hidden Unity of Iranian Architecture Conceptualization Behind the Making of a Documentary Film
    American International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 4 No. 2; April 2018 Desert Utopia: The Hidden Unity of Iranian Architecture Conceptualization behind the Making of a Documentary Film Khosrow Bozorgi Professor of Architecture and Urban Design Director, Center for Middle Eastern Architecture and Culture College of Architecture, University of Oklahoma United States of America NARRATIVE Desert Utopia will examine the history of architecture in three desert cities in Iran, exploring unique aspects of the built environment that enabled people to flourish in one of the world’s harshest climates. Although the film will focus on the history of Iranian desert architecture spanning thousands of years, this project is nevertheless timely for today’s American audiences. Due to concerns about global environmental change, sustainable building techniques have emerged as a topic of increasing interest over the past two decades. This interest encompasses themes such as the use of local building materials, creative ways to minimize water use (and water waste), and ways to reduce the amount of energy spent on heating and cooling. Furthermore, the geopolitics of the last two decades also have piqued Americans’ curiosity about the Middle East, especially Iran, but for many people, their knowledge about this part of the world is spotty or even misinformed. Desert Utopia is therefore a film that comes at the right time: It will help satisfy Americans’ curiosity about environmentally sound architecture while filling some of the gaps in their knowledge about Iranian culture and history. However, Desert Utopia is more than simply a film about sustainable architecture in Iranian history.

Upon arrival, you will be transferred to your hotel for a good night’s rest. Overnight : 4* Ferdowsi Hotel DAY 02 TEHRAN / SHIRAZ (Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner) Your morning begins with a visit to the Golestan Palace, an immense area of 1,100,000sqm housing 18 magnificent historical palaces, 2 of which you will visit. This complex was built by the Pahlavi Dynasty and it will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on you. Catch your domestic flight to Shiraz after lunch. On the way to your hotel, make a stop at Shah-e-Cheragh. This is one of the most beautiful shrines in Iran, the beautiful dome; wonderful lighting and impressive mirror-work will capture your attention. Overnight : 5* Chamran Grand Hotel DAY 03 SHIRAZ / PERSEPOLIS / NECROPOLIS / SHIRAZ (Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner) After breakfast, full day excursion of Persepolis and Necropolis awaits you. Persepolis was founded by Darius I in 518BC, as the capital of the Achaemenid Empire. It was built on an immense half artificial, half natural terrace, where this king of kings at that time created an impressive palace complex inspired by Mesopotamian models. The historical importance and quality of the monumental ruins make it a unique archaeological site. It seems that Darius planned this impressive complex of palaces not only as the seat of government but also, and primarily, as a show place and a spectacular centre for the receptions and festivals of the Achaemenid kings and their empire, such as for the celebration of Nawruz.

  • Walk to Jerusalem Spring Week 5 We Had Another Great Week This Week
    Walk to Jerusalem Spring Week 5 We had another great week this week. We had 53 participants and walked 1072.5 miles! The map below shows our progress through the end of week five (purple line). At the end of week four we had arrived at Zahedan, Iran, just over the border from Pakistan. On Monday, March 1, we proceeded to trek across Iran, hoping to arrive in Iraq by Sunday. I had no idea when I planned this tour last November that the Pope would be in Iraq when we arrived, nor was I certain we would reach Iraq in time to see him in person but we did! A note about Persians versus Arabs: Iranians view themselves as Persian, not Arabs. Persia at one point was one of the greatest empires of all time (see map on page 2). From this great culture we gained beautiful art seen in the masterful woven Persian carpets, melodic poetic verse, and modern algebra. It is referred to as an “ancient” empire, but, in fact, some Persian practices, such as equal rights for men and women and the abolishment of slavery, were way ahead of their time. The Persian Solar calendar is one of the world’s most accurate calendar systems. Persians come from Iran while Arabs come from the Arabia Peninsula. The fall Persia’s great dynasty to Islamic control occurred from 633-656 AD. Since that time surrounding Arab nations have forced the former power to repeatedly restructure, changing former Persia into present day Iran. But with history and culture this rich, it is to no surprise that Persians want to be distinguished from others including their Arab neighbors.

  • Pathology of the Art of Mesgari in Kerman Bazaar
    Science Arena Publications Specialty Journal of Humanities and Cultural Science ISSN: 2520-3274 Available online at www.sciarena.com 2019, Vol, 4 (3): 35-45 Pathology of the Art of Mesgari in Kerman Bazaar Najmeh Falsafi M.A in Islamic Art, University of Art, Tehran, Iran. Abstract: Kerman Mesgari is the most prominent art industry that has deep roots in the culture and history of this land; and has a wide range of diversities. Mesgari bazaar in Kerman was an important element in the production and meeting the needs of people’s lives in the past; but due to different reasons, it has changed in different periods. Today, a few number of people are actively working in this field while the number of them is decreasing day by day because hard work, insufficient income and tolerance of hardship relating to this kind of art has been forced them to work less or leave their work; however, there are some people among them who are still working with love and continuous effort. In this regard, a research has been done studying this art from a pathological point of view, the challenges that coppersmiths are facing with, the determination of current needs for further developing of this art as well as recognizing elder artists in this field and presenting some solutions for solving these problems. Keywords: Mesgari, Kerman Mesgari, Kerman Bazaar, Copper, Handicrafts. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study is to evaluate and understand the status of Mesgari, its position in the market in Kerman, its problems and current limitations as well as its future prospects.
