Shahnameh;
The 5th Color’s 4th Iranian Typography Exhibition 2008
New deadline: 11th of Bahman (January 31, 2008)
The Shahnameh is the poetic recital of the oldest legendary and
mythical Iranian narrations which has been written in verses by
Hakim Abol-ghasem Ferdowsi (935–1020).
He spent most of his life writing it, with this work of art he
became one of the greatest poets of the world.
Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, in quality as well as in quantity is the
greatest classical literary work in the Farsi language; it may even
be counted as one of the most important epic works throughout the
world.
Ferdowsi is a poet for all times, his way of writing in the
Shahnameh is simple and clear.
In this collection the generosity and bravery of the well-known
Iranian heroes and their astonishing and wonderful stories, their
challenges with demons, giants and witches has been written and
composed with great beauty.
Even today after one thousand years, the Shahnameh as one of the few
literary masterpieces of the world with its interpretation opens new
doors to the great dimensions of Ferdowsi's way of thinking.
The 5th Color, after its three successful Exhibitions on Iranian
Typography (Bouf-e Kour,
Molavi and Iranian Proverbs) and the high
enthusiasm and attraction given by the Iranian graphic designers as
well as its reflection throughout the World, hereby invites you to
take part in the Fourth Iranian Typography Exhibition titled"
Ferdowsi's Shahnameh".
