An event celebrating the poetry of this great American Beat poet and his influence on British poets of the 1960s and 70s. Commemorating the 30th anniversary of his famous live performance at the Royal AlbertHall in London in 1969. With Michael Horovitz and guests. In association with Poet in the City and Jewish Book Week
This major exhibition explores seventeenth-century Iran through the reign and legacy of one of its most influential rulers, Shah ʿAbbas I (reigned AD 1587–1629).
Shah ʿAbbas was a stabilising force in Iran following a period of civil war and foreign invasion. He strengthened the economy by establishing global trade links between Asia and Europe and revitalised the state religion Shi’a Islam which is still practised today.
The exhibition will demonstrate Shah ʿAbbas’s social, religious and artistic influence on Iran through the gifts he endowed to major shrines in Mashhad, Ardabil and Qum, and his magnificent new capital at Isfahan. The objects, many of which have not been seen outside Iran, will include exquisite Qur'ans, mosque lamps, paintings, carpets, calligraphy, porcelain
and silks.
