Iranian Artists Forum displays Ta'zieh scripts

The Iranian Artists Forum has put a collection of some rare Ta'zieh scripts on display in commemoration of Imam Hussein (AS)’s martyrdom.

This Persian passion play was registered on the UNESCO list during the fifth session of UNESCO's Intergovernmental Committee in Nairobi, Kenya in November 2011.

The late renowned Iranian filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami also made a documentary movie titled ‘A Look to Ta’zieh’ in which he explores the relationship of the audience to this theatrical form.

The exhibition is currently underway and will run until September 17, 2019.
