Nepalese festival to present Iranian art

This year’s festival will be held under the title of “Earth, Body and Mind” and aims to educate and make people aware about concerns related to climate change and its impact on human beings and nature.

The organizers of the event hope to examine how artists view climate change issues and offer innovative approaches to unite and inspire society.

Amani is planning to display his performance art titled A Requiem for the Earth, which is a combination of the folk music of the Iranian region of Lorestan with the mourning rites common in the west of the country.

Amani’s works have been displayed at several exhibitions including the Iranian Photography Expo, 5th International Competition on Besme Allah, Painting workshop in International Mohamadian Art Festival, and Concerning Angels.

Inaugurated in 2009, the Kathmandu International Art Festival is the largest international art event held in Nepal and will be held as a nonprofit festival every three years by the Siddhartha Arts Foundation.

The 2nd Kathmandu International Art Festival will kick off on November 25, 2012 and will run until December 21.
