Amir Kabir #1 Statue

His most important activities include the establishment of the Dar al-Fonun School in Tehran, the launch of the newspaper “Vaqaye Etefaqiyeh” as the first newspaper in Iran, the establishment of textile, sugar, Chinese and crystal factories, paper making, cast iron and so on. He was one of the prime ministers of Iran during the reign of Nasser al-Din Shah, whose efforts did not last long and he was eventually assassinated by order of the Shah. The height of the statue of Amirkabir is about 43 cm, its weight is more than 1 kg and its material is fiberglass. This statue was made in the workshop of “Statue and sculpture of Shahriar”. In this statue, the builder shows Amirkabir standing. Sculptures can be of any gender, can be of any size, shape, complex or simple. But they definitely have a message for each of us. They can be mythical heroes whose names we have heard in stories, or they can be simple geometric shapes. They can be the body of a popular poet on a crowded town square, or even a clay bird on a ledge. The statues look like travel. A journey from everyday life to feelings and thoughts, to beauty and, most importantly, to the dialogue of different civilizations, cultures and ideas. Sculptures can represent an idea, culture or civilization. A culture and thought that sometimes speaks to man from past centuries.
