Abstract: (140 Views)
The literary elements in Iranian visual arts have had a complex and alluring history from ancient times to the present. The aim of this paper, however, is to draw attention to aspects of this history shaped by elements on the fields of discursively, which have led to the emergence of different types of literary elements in contemporary visual arts. Even a cursory review indicates that the use of letters in visual arts has undergone such transformations that it challenges the fixed beliefs and deterministic propositions of traditional approaches such as calligraphy in the cultural discourse since Iran’s’ revolution in 1979. This research, relying on the discourse analysis method of Laclau and Mouffe, intends to analyze artistic flows to show the conflicts over the definition and stabilization of meaning in this field. Conflicts whose social effects lead to different formulations of the presence of written elements in visual arts. The special prominence of the upcoming research is to reveal the marginalized elements that appear in the moments of unrest and instability of the discourse and challenge the hegemony of the central discourse. The discourse analysis provides us with the opportunity of examining the differing positions of actors within a discursive space and to explore the contexts of text production. Such artworks meaningfully diverge from collective identities such as religion, revolution, war, and social contradictions and discuss them in a personal and critical manner. Before sending any messages, such artworks include a kind of over-connotation that could be summarized in this phrase: The subject’s effort to position signs within a new chain of equivalence for creating a novel semantic system. These artists play the role of agents in the reproduction and transformation of the power circumstances, with their distinctive creativity. This research endeavors to reflect on how and under what discursive conditions the artist, by creating a new semantic system, emphasizes the agency of the subject in such a way that it generates a new discourse. The methodology of investigation in the present research is discourse analysis, and the method of information collection is library-based, including the review of archival documents and observational
