According to the art and media reporter of Fars News Agency, the 20th of April every year is the anniversary of Seyyed Morteza Avini’s martyrdom, a martyr who became known as Seyyed Shahidan Ahl al-Qalam because he was the founder and initiator of the art of the Islamic Revolution.

Many people were with Seyyed Morteza Avini during his valuable life, or have memories of his morals and character, expressing these memories can be a precise manifesto for the artists of the Islamic Revolution.

In this regard, we talked to director and documentary maker Abdul Rahman Shalilian, whose TV series “Children of Grohan Bilal” is his last work. He spoke with Shahid Avini during his student days, and Seyyed Shahidan Ahl Qalam Narishan said his student days.

At the beginning, Shalilian said, referring to the Art Day of the Islamic Revolution: The Islamic revolution of the components has its own characteristics and certainly in these years there were artists who presented works in these fields and the power of presenting works in the first days of the revolution was evident in a field such as music and works were created that are still brilliant and later in other fields. Artists worked hard and works were created, works that are influenced by religious conditions, because this revolution carries with it the Islamic nature, this Islamic nature also carries with it the characteristics of being revolutionary, and these two characteristics are always associated with the works. The artists of the revolution are accompanied.

He continued: In relation to the conditions we are in today, we are definitely experiencing very complicated conditions and we must be fully prepared for revolutionary productions in the field of art and cultural productions, and I hate their entry because the enemy has entered the field in this field with great strength. .

This director continued: Of course, in my opinion, if we appear strong in terms of structure and amount of productions, we will have the ability to fight back, because in terms of content and content, we have our hands full, and we just have to see in what container we should present this content.

Abdur Rahman Shalilian further pointed to the teachings of Martyr Avini and said: Apart from the thoughts that everyone has that Morteza Avini was only a religious figure and he only thought about this feature in the production of his works, Avini was very bound to use techniques and features Henry was at work, and I think that if he was today, he would have opposed many of the producers of revolutionary works and would not have shown the lack of full compliance with the technique.

He continued in this regard: One of the very important aspects of producing an artistic work is paying attention to the audience in this space, and not paying attention to it makes the production of the work meaningless. A great work should definitely have artistic features according to its theme.

The director of the “Kids of Grohan Bilal” series expressed a memory of Seyed Morteza Avini: I have already told how I met Seyed Morteza Avini and writing and reading the narration of the documentary Dance of Science, but what I always felt with all my heart was that I had a fatherly feeling towards Morteza and whenever I met him, I felt safe because he is a human being. He was very reliable and even when I disagreed with him, I could safely express my opinion, and I was sure that this would have no consequences for me. It was a feeling and morality that I have seen much less after Shahid Avini.

Regarding the legacy left by Martyr Avini, he said: Morteza had a very courageous character and did not become a prisoner of artistic sentimentalism because he was an intellectual person and he had come out of a certain intellectual blindness and special intellectual conditions, and it was clear that he had reached a mental enlightenment and could not He envisioned a weakness for him, Avini’s legacy is zeal, thinking and intellectual maturity.

In the end, Shalilian said: Morteza Avini has a legacy and works that can always be referred to and originated from Avini’s heart and thinking, and in my opinion Seyed Morteza Avini is more of a culture than a name.
