Naser palangi: A vow for the paintings of Khoramshahr’s Great Mosque

TEHRAN, (SCIB) - The wall paintings of Khoramshahr’s Great Mosque were based upon a vow made in the desert by fellows who have been fighting for two years through the nights of liberation of Khoramshahr, Naser Palangi announced.

Palangi who takes part in the exhibition with his sketch ‘Life in Khoramshahr’ in an exclusive interview with the reporter of Shahed cultural data base stated: “In art what is original is the thought, feelings and the spirit that the artist expresses. In each era specific tools and instruments proportionate to scientific developments and the relation between art and technology is given to the artist. Applying such instrument depends on the taste, talent and the skills and it is quiet natural that digital facilities are much vaster than a painting brush. Our time is the time of communication revolution and therefore the digital art moves in that regard. This painting artist mentioning the necessity of applying the modern tools in the contemporary world insisted: If an artist wishes to have a new word of his cultural, literal, religious and national heritage for the world there is no other way but to apply advanced tools. Because we can only compete with the world if we master the instruments of present and be the child of our own time. In other words we have to master state of the art methods and their dialectal apparatus. He also stated that the human resources and experiences in the vastness geography of the earth have achieved a certain set of values and cultural heritage which is called Mankind’s cultural legacy on land. We too have special cultural heritage, ancient civilized history and quite exceptional inheritances specifically in literature and myth which are significant in the world. This heritage needs to be introduced to the world through latest methods and materials and the artists of each nation should try to know the ways to express them. Naser Palangi, who in his recent trip to Khoramshahr, got to repair the pictures and paintings of its Great Mosque also declared: This year when I once more visited that Mosque, approximately 800 thousand visitors had traveled to Khoramshahr during 18 days. They got photos by the pictures and even I saw a woman who felt the paints and then touched her face by that hand. When I observed such scenes I told myself that was the very vow who has blessed those paintings and made thousand people stand by those pictures for twenty five years. Maybe Khorramshahr’s Great Mosque is the first mosque that its historical paintings are restored in its own time. The Great Mosque is identified as a national remnants of the sacred defense and the paintings will survive in people’s houses and photo albums instead of galleries. At the end Palangi added that an engineering vision by digital print and a realistic look to the current of life in Khoramshahr is the essence of his sketch in the exhibition.
