Abstract
Religious ideals led to the revolution in 1979. The artists too tried to play their role in the victory of revolution. They created artworks distinct from various views with regard to their responsibility and commitment to this unprecedented public movement.
A group of artists in this regard created works centered on religious beliefs and Islamic revolutionary concepts, while another group worked depending on party-oriented and organizational ideas. This paper through a comparative study tries to identify the visual and pictorial symbols selected based on the artists intellectual basis in the time of revolution.
The research has been carried out through gathering published material using analytical and descriptive methods. The results clarify that the visual characteristics of the works and their symbolic elements reflect the ideas central to the creation of works in this period. In other words religious artists used the symbols correspondent to religious thought while others worked based on their ideologic beliefs and concerning the experiences of socialist countries.
