The power of Iranian art? Poetry, Painting, Music, Dance

Art is a powerful means of challenging the excluded and giving a voice to those who may be forgotten. It is through this incredible power of expression that words, notes and gestures reveal themselves, creating a rich and profound dialogue. In an infinite circle, these elements intertwine and open up, enabling us to tell stories, meet souls, listen to emotions and see the world from new angles. Art thus becomes a bridge between individuals, an invitation to exchange and mutual understanding, transcending barriers and celebrating the diversity of the human experience.

A two-evening event: - On Friday April 4, starting at 7:30pm, the Cercle Condorcet will present a lecture on the situation of minorities in Iran, followed by a videoconference interview with painter Shahriar Cyrus, who works in Tehran, to talk about the situation of artists in Iran.

- On Saturday April 5 from 8:00 pm, a multi-arts evening will feature a poetry reading by Lucien Crevel of poems by three women poets: Tâhereh, Mahvash Sabet and Simin Behbahani. The reading will be accompanied by musician Soroush Kamalian and enhanced by whirling dervish dancer Bahareh Shacoori.
