#Repost @purana_pakistan ・・・ Sadequain (30th June 1930-10th Feb 1987) . Sadequain, born as Syed Sadequain Ahmed Naqvi, was a world renowned Pakistani artist known for his creativity and novice trends in Islamic Calligraphy- alongside being an artist, he was also a poet who wrote hundreds of rubaiyat (classical Persian poetry) in the style of Omar Khayyam and Sarmad Kashani. Sadequain- also known as Sadequain Naqqash- was born in Amroha (now Uttar Pradesh) in 1930 to a family of calligraphers. In the late 1940s, he was part of the Progressive Writers and Artists Movement. . It was Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy who noticed his talent and brought him into the public eye. Sadequain was self-made, self-taught, nontraditional and unconventional-- He has recieved a variety of national as well as international awards for his art. . Sadequain was a fascinating man who took no interest in the superficial- he was not interested in wealth and also avoided painting for the rich. He preferred gifting his art rather than selling it. His work is highly distinctive and can easily be singled out. . His most notable pieces were murals that were the most difficult to make and the most impressive. His work spanned across walls and ceilings and were painted under different themes of social nature. Some of his murals were noted as the longest and largest in the world. They contained intricate details with every inch filled with art. . He painted to his own satisfaction and did justice to every piece produced. . Sadequain passed away on 10th February 1987- leaving his last mural, "Arzo-Samawat" (Heaven and Earth) incomplete inside Frere Hall, Karachi. (Second Slide) . (You can see a picture of him in the last slide) .

epost @harisism_ Sayonee x PIA Its 2042! PIA is offering its first flight to space for passengers in Pakistan from Islamabad International Airport to the International Space Station. All the years of misery and mismanagement have ended and a new phase has started in the history of PIA. They ask me to design an advertisement inspired by their vintage ads from the 70’s and 80’s to symbolise the return of the Golden era of PIA and this is what I end up making. I use junoon’s “sayonee” to appeal to the people who are distressed with their lives and are looking for an escape. The lyrics roughly translate to “not a single moment full of peace and there’s no way out of it now” Also the urdu sentence in the bottom translates to “an adventure in space to forget all of your worldly problems” P.S I have attached my moodboard for this design in the third picture. You guys should definitely check it out. PIA was vv classy back in the day! And also dw I didn’t add music on purpose, there’s nothing wrong with your phone’s audio 😂 #thecoronicles #urdutypography #urduillustration #urduartarchive #pakistaniartist #urduart #poster #minimal #blackandwhite #repost #flying

#Repost @designedbyatta (@get_repost) ・・・ Ther's an old Persian proverb about Delhi, "Hanuz Dilli Door Ast", which came down in Urdu & Hindi as, "Dilli Abhi Door Hai". Today we use it in the sense of - One's destination is yet far away! However, the old proverb has come down since 1320 AD and hides within it's folds a piece of lesser known History related to Sufi saint Hazrat Nizamuddin Oliya. In those days Ghiyasuddin Tughlak ruled over Delhi but the city was better known for it's Sufi saint Nizamuddin Oliya and his disciple Amir Khusro. The ruler Ghiyasuddin Tughlak was very fond of the great poet and philosopher Amir Khusro who happened to be his courtier. But the Sultan was suspicious of the Sufi saint Nizamuddin and believed that he and the people hanging around in his reverence were plotting against the ruler himself. The Sultan was once on his way back to Delhi after a war with West Bengal.On his way back he sent out a decree for Nizamuddin to leave Delhi before his return! Amir Khusro who deeply revered Nizamuddin was very disturbed by the farmaan and went to Oliya voicing his concern. Nizamuddin was most unperturbed and said, "Hunuz Dilli door ast"- Which means Delhi is yet very far away! It so happened that as Sultan Ghiyasuddin was on his way back to Delhi after victory at war, a special celebration was held for him at a camp where a platform was erected for the king. In an ensuing storm the podium fell down and with it the Sultan himself had a fall and died. Indeed the Sultan never reached Delhi and Nizamuddin's words became proverbial- Dilli Abhi Door Hai." #dillidoorast #dehli #ameerkhusro #nizamuddin #urduart #red #sketch #urdutypography #urduquote #quote #minimal #urdu #cleandesign #urdutypography #typography #Pakistan #pakistaniwriter #typographyinspired #instaquotes #humor #literature #author #urduposter #urduartarchive #designedbyatta #follow #pakistaniart #sufi #اردو https://www.instagram.com/p/CCAVDADh13T/?igshid=1nuykd5yajgw9
