Selected Works from the "Still Flowing" Exhibit
A Review of the Reflection of the Ashura Movement in Contemporary Iranian Visual Arts
Ashurai art is so rooted in the institutions of the people of this land that it has guided the artist Delabakhte towards this current concept. The artists, who are indebted to their eternal commitment, have presented their works in any form, including: poetry, writing, painting, illustration, inscription, iconography, curtain reading, ritual performances and musical sounds, to the martyrs' square.
The art of pattern and color also played its part to express the battle of blood and sword and continues to speak about this epic with a new image so that visual arts in this day and age can be an expressive and expressive form to express the great epic of Ashura. The flow of this mania, in the passage of time, is evident from the paintings of the coffee house and the Naqali curtain, to its traces in the works of the Saqqakhane school and the narratives of the artists of the Islamic Revolution and Holy Defense. "Still Current" is an event with a research-oriented approach that has watched and scrutinized this treasure far from any prejudice to provide a platform for re-reading and rethinking.
