ماجرای حذف نقاشی آغداشلو از شازده احتجاب و توضیح باربد گلشیری3†

After the accusation of “sexual harassment” against Aydin Aghdashloo, the son of Houshang Golshiri announced the removal of Aghdashloo’s plan from the cover of “Prince of Ehtejab”.

“The new edition of Prince Ehtejab will be distributed next week,” Barbad Golshiri wrote on his Twitter account, posting a photo of the old and new volumes of the famous novel.
“Failure to bring Aghdashloo’s plan is not censorship,” he said in response to what he called “censorship.” Especially when we know that the cover design of the prints of the last two years was not his work. On the back of the cover was “Design on the cover: Ninety. Quoted from the work of Aydin Aghdashloo, published in 1978, Phoenix. “So the design of the cover of 1957 is the work of Aghdashloo.”
He continued: “51 years have passed since the publication of Prince Ehtejab. It has been published many times and has designs. No plan has eliminated any other plan. “We will not go back in time and burn the 57th edition or delete his work and soil and censor it, but we will certainly – I emphasize for sure – not use it for later editions.”
Former journalist Sara Emta Ali wrote on Twitter on September 22 that she was sexually assaulted by the painter when she went to Aydin Aghdashloo’s office in Iran as an art reporter to cover a report.
Aghdashloo has denied the allegations in a statement posted on social media.
