March 30, 2024 4:00-10:00PM Shiraz Arts Festival at Asian Arts Initiative
Saturday! March 30th 4pm to 10pm at Asian Arts Initiative!
The Shiraz Arts Festival was a platform for cultural exchange that brought together artists from around the world to share and celebrate their diverse artistic expressions. One notable event from the festival was the “Stockhausen Panorama” in 1972, which celebrated the work of the German composer Karlheinz Stockhausen through a series of multiple concerts. “Shiraz Panorama” celebrates that legacy through the rich lens of Philadelphia’s vibrant performing arts community.
Mina Zarfsaz & Eugene Lew will present a new work inspired by the Persian poem “The Conference of the Birds,” followed by a gallery tour with curator Vali Mahlouji. Traditional Indian Bharatanatyam dance will be performed by USILOQUY DANCE, and the evening will include a cultural debate with special guests. Jupiter Blue, featuring members of Sun Ra Arkestra, will captivate with guitar and vocals, leading to traditional Balinese music and dance by Gamelan Gita Santi x Modero & Company, and a striking performance of Luciano Berio’s “Sequenza III per voce” (1965) by Alize Rozsnyai. Experimental rhythm & drone by Universal Rhythm (Shakoor Hakeem & Pete Angevine) joined by Chris Powell and Manna Pourrezaei, Toshi Makihara’s unique fusion of percussion and dance, and traditional Korean percussion by Uriol우리얼 will round out this vibrant celebration of world arts.

Ana Tijoux is the Chilean hip-hop protester. Her cover letter could well be what media outlets like Rolling Stone who chose her as the best rapper in Spanish, The New York Times who points to her as the Latin American response to Lauryn Hill, or magazines like Newsweek who ranks her as the most important Latin American rapper on the international scene. Ana Tijoux was born in Lille in 1977. Her parents went into exile during Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship in Chile, which has left a mark on her career, marked by a special sensitivity to political and social issues. Her music dialogues to the sound of hip hop, fused. A feminist and activist in her lyrics, she denounces social and cultural deficiencies. In favor of women's rights and against gender violence, in 2014 she highlighted in her album "Vengo" the song "Antipatriarch". They frequently participate in campaigns against inequality and oppression in the world. Tijoux is committed to defending women's rights and has denounced gender violence and inequality. Also the inequality faced by artists in the world of cinema, or singers.
