Persian Paint Care

(VOVWORLD) - "A picture is worth more than a thousand words", Deputy Foreign Minister Pham Quang Hieu said at a recent exhibition of handcrafts and photographs of the history, customs, and culture of the Iranian people. Cultural Rendezvous’s Bao Tram talked with Iranian Ambassador to Vietnam Ali Akbar Nazari about the art heritages of Iran, the land of the thrilling stories of Sheherazade, with whom many generations of Vietnamese are familiar. Bao Tram: Welcome Mr. Ambassador to VOV24/7’s Cultural Rendezvous. Ambassador: Thank you so much for having me here today. Bao Tram: One of the best ways to discover a nation’s culture is through its art. Tell us what Iran’s art heritages include. Ambassador: The art of Iran is one of the richest art heritages in the world and encompasses many traditional disciplines, including architecture, painting, literature, music, weaving, pottery, calligraphy, metalworking, and stone masonry. Bao Tram: What characterizes Iranian art? Ambassador:  To understand the characteristics of Iranian art, you have to know its history. Iran, which was commonly known as Persiauntil the mid-20th century, is home to one of the world's oldest continuous major civilizations, dating back to 7000 BC. As the region of Persia developed, Iranian art gave persian blue cat

been that way ever since. As I began to type this page, Yubon, the Thai girl (pronounced ‘tiger’, much to my confusion at first) who lives next door, brought me a bowl of lotuses and asked me how to pronounce ‘luxurious’; Chat Su, who is also Thai, gave me a special Thai sauce to put on my rice. The night I arrived, I was unpacked, mosquito netted (you drape a sort of canopy over the bed, giving a lovely, airy, safe feeling, like being in a crib, or sleeping in the summer palace of a king; I have always loved to crawl under things and go to sleep), briefed, questioned, admired, all in a great flurry of girlish curiosity. I live in the Scholars’ Block, Birla Hostel (room 16, for the mail boy), where most of the foreign (that is, non Bengali) girls live, Chinese, Punjabi, Trinidadian, Persian, South Indian, and Japanese. I am the only American here. Being foreigners, we have many special concessions: we live in the newest hostel (five months old), have showers and toilets and good, soft American-style toilet paper, don’t have to play games (which is a damn good thing, as they are held at jotun

survived. It’s a testimony to our deep feelings for each other that Joe and I have managed to hold on. My children and I never set foot in Vietnam, but all our lives were changed by the war. I know that some people probably look at Joe and think, “Why doesn’t he get over it already?” I wish it were that simple. My husband came home from Vietnam 25 years ago, and he still fights a battle every day. I’ll never know what it feels like to face Joe’s demons. I only know, from watching him go through this, how much courage it takes and I can’t think of a better role model for our children than a father who’s brave enough to do what he did.

yellow and red. Figurative but not realistic, it shows, in addition to the items in the title, a feather boa, an open book, a dildo, a disembodied foot, a head with a clown nose, a striped necktie, a hanging light bulb, a pearl necklace, a light-emitting iPhone on a tripod, and a man’s head face down in the groin of a nude, upside-down male figure. These unrelated images are painted with such panache and fluency that they seem to belong together. My immediate reaction was that this artist could paint anything and make me believe in it. Toor is a newcomer to art-world stardom. Slim, dark-haired, and thirty-nine years old, he has a quiet self-confidence that puts him at ease with most people. He was born in Lahore, Pakistan, but he has lived mainly in New York since he graduated from the Pratt Institute, in 2009. In the early years of his career, he had little interest in modern art. He painted technically dazzling, contemporary versions of Old Master portraits, landscapes, and genre scenes, from the Renaissance to the eighteenth century, and his pictures found ready buyers in Pakistan and in the United States. “I thought a lot of modern.

of fun.” Toor was fascinated by Atiya’s exotic beauty. “Her father is Egyptian, her mother is Argentinean,” he told me. “She reminded me of an Orientalist painting. She’s also queer. I made many portraits of her. She would come to my studio to readshe read everything, and she was always bringing me books. We made good roommates. I got a monastery-size bed for the living room, and she had the bedroom. While we were living together, I read Marjane Satrapi’s ‘Persepolis,’ which was a graphic novel, and we started joking and thinking about writing a graphic novel together.” Atiya remembers that this happened in 2013, after Toor’s first solo show at Aicon’s New York gallery. “There were paintings of people in cars and in all sorts of settings, and there seemed to be a story behind all these characters,” she said. Toor and Atiya have been co-writing (and rewriting) the graphic novel ever since, although they slowed down after Atiya moved to Canada, in 2014, for postgraduate studies in medieval literature at the University of Toronto. Not long after Toor’s return to New York in 2011, he made a large painting that was unlike anything he had done before. The.
