This presentation considers definitive directions for “Bahá’í artists” through the Writings that include both general directions and specific instructions of Central Figures to their contemporary artists. We will visit how broad schematics of future “Bahá’í arts” are depicted through the Writings of the Blessed Beauty. Then we reflect on few examples of artistic choices made by the Central Figures of the Faith‚ and specifically focus on the significance of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s choice stylistic and melodic decisions in His recorded chant‚ His approach to literary techniques specifically in His Poems, and His elegant and stark choices in decoration, highlighting central principles of the Faith.
