ART PROJECT BACKGROUND

More than seven hundred years have passed since the compilation of this poetic work, and great artists created magnificent and lasting works. The majority of these great works in different historical eras have presented the original Arabic content using decorative arts aiming at the enrichment of the Islamic arts for the Muslim nation and paying no attention to the non-Muslim audience.
But thanks to the expansion of translation techniques into different languages including English, French and etc., the path was paved for the presentation of the Quranic notions and Islamic literature and the creation of the dialogue between the world religions. Thus, the unknown content was communicated to the people who are interested in different languages.

On the other hand, what has been created in the past century by the great calligraphers and Islamic ornamentation (Tazhib) artists in terms of Islamic arts has not been bilingual or multilingual and a collection of Qur'anic and Islamic literature and poems has not been created in other languages.
At the same time, what was created in the course of these centuries by the greatest masters of calligraphy and illuminated manuscript in the Islamic written arts for the bilingual content did not indeed focus on the bilingual content and paid no attention to the artistic show box of the translation of Quran and Islamic literature and poems given the wider extent of the translation into different languages. Thus, given the fact that the translation of Quran and Islamic literature and poems into different languages of the world is now considered to be one of the treasures of Islamic civilization, the use of international (non-Islamic) calligraphy arts and the creation of the bilingual art works as complementing the notions of the calligraphy works in the international arena is one of the issues of the further expansion and promotion of the level of Islamic arts in international scale.
