Encyclopaedia Iranica is proud to announce that in keeping with its tradition of preservation and promotion of Iranian culture, it will showcase a unique artistic program entitled "Danses Mythologiques," conceived in collaboration with the Paris-based Iranian artist Shahrokh Moshkin Galam, a member of La Comédie Française, and his dance company. This event, which will take place at Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall on Sunday, June 28th, 2009 at 7:00 p.m., features a series of dramatic dance performances inspired by legends taken from masterpieces of Persian literature, presented both in the original language and English translations, including poems by such renowned Persian poets as Ferdowsi and Nezami. Choreographed by Shahrokh Moshkin Ghalam, this program will be the centerpiece of a tribute to the Encyclopaedia Iranica, with the proceeds benefiting the ongoing project at the Center for Iranian Studies, Columbia University.
