TEHRAN- The Iranian Art Museum Garden is hosting an exhibition of bilingual calligraphic works inspired by the Persian poet Omar Khayyam, featuring the creations of two female calligraphers, Parisa Eftekhari and Niloufar Fattahi.<\/p>\n
Entitled \u201cLines Without Borders,\u201d the exhibit showcases the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam in both Persian and Latin scripts, ISNA reported on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The Persian section has been crafted by Parisa Eftekhari, a calligrapher known for her pen and ballpoint skills, while the Latin section, which includes Fitzgerald’s translations of Khayyam\u2019s verses, is created by Niloufar Fattahi, a Latin calligraphy artist.<\/p>\n
The focus of these two artists in the “Lines Without Borders ” exhibition is on the ability to write and create calligraphy using a ballpoint pen.<\/p>\n
Following the exhibition, the artists plan to publish a book under the same title.<\/p>\n
The exhibition will run until November 24.<\/p>\n
Omar Khayyam was a Persian mathematician, astronomer, and poet, renowned in his own country and time for his scientific achievements, but chiefly known to English-speaking readers through the translation of a collection of his quatrains in \u201cThe Rub\u00e1iy\u00e1t of Omar Khayy\u00e1m\u201d (1859), by the English writer Edward FitzGerald.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His poetic works delve into themes of love, nature, and the ephemeral nature of life, reflecting a profound philosophical introspection. Khayyam\u2019s quatrains, typically composed of four lines, are lauded for their depth and wit, conveying complex ideas with remarkable simplicity.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Alongside his literary legacy, Khayyam made significant contributions to mathematics and astronomy, notably in algebra and the Gregorian calendar reform. His ability to bridge the realms of science and art has solidified his status as a monumental figure in Persian literature.\u00a0<\/p>\n
