Roqe Ep.334 - Queen Farah and the Rise of Iranian Art and Culture
Update: 2024-08-08
Description
With Iran back in the news again for a multitude of negative reasons, we pivot to a special edition focused entirely on pre-Islamic Republic Iranian history and, particularly, arts and culture and the role of Farah Diba, the last Empress of Iran, and the significant role she played in the cultural renaissance of the 1960s and 70s that resonates to the present day. Jian is joined by Dr. Layla Diba, an Iranian-American independent scholar, art advisor and curator, who was the first woman museum director in Iran, for a very intimate, detailed and first-hand look at the role that Queen Farah played in fostering a vibrant cultural scene in Iran.
