Nadali: Crisis Narratives Must Be Turned into Refined Art

The spokesperson of the Tehran City Council stressed that the sacrifices of rescue and service personnel during crises should not remain at the level of administrative reports. He stated that the true record of these epics will endure only through the language of refined art, cinema, and music.

The spokesman of Tehran Islamic Council emphasized that the sacrifices of relief and service forces in crises should not be limited to administrative reports, and declared that the real recording of these epics can only be preserved through the language of art, cinema and noble music.

According to Arjan's ambassador, Alireza Nadali, at the closing ceremony of the 5th crisis cultural and artistic festival held in Tehran municipality building, referring to the round-the-clock efforts of the fire brigade, waste management and crisis management in the critical conditions of the 12-day war and the Ramadan war, said: "The sacrifices of our colleagues in urban management along with the Red Crescent forces were truly spectacular and made every person feel envious; But after the incident, all these events are treasures that should be engraved in history, and the real statements of this field, after being presented in official reports, will be turned into art, visual works, and beautiful music.

Referring to the mission of collections such as the Islamic Revolution Art Center in reflecting these events, he added: In the same inflammatory days of the 12-day war, when a new incident was expected every moment, the people of cinema and television came to work to turn the moments of relief and sacrifice of the people into scenes of pride. This path is just the beginning of love, and just as the brilliant narratives of the holy defense were created decades later, the reflection of these crises must also continue for years.

The Vice Chairman of the Cultural and Social Commission of the Tehran Islamic Council also honored the memory of artists such as the late master Habibullah Sadeghi and emphasized the need for humor to enter the field of performance criticism and noted: the place for critical humor is extremely empty; Artists should come and criticize the officials, the municipality and the government without compliments with the language of art and humor, so that people feel that they are not only complimenting each other; Because a criticism from the late Kiyomarth Saberi (Gol Agha) makes the performance improvements and effective actions better seen.
