Problem statement:

 exploring the press is a big step toward documentation and portraying the mental interpretation of textual data. Qualitative analysis of the content of these texts displays the cultural approaches and policies and provides an opportunity for formulating the situation. During the 1330s/ 1950s and 1340s/ 1960s , when modern art in Iran was engaged in establishing and redefining itself, those press specialized in art and culture started to teach the ways of observing works of art. Simultaneous with these changes they were investigating the meaning of art. In exploring the atmosphere of that period, two models of nationalist and modernist were presupposed and were studied as two paradigms concerning tradition-modernity duality. This paper aims to explain these two paradigms through probing into the press archive in 20 years and elaborate the most vivid instance of each of them and finally put forward a new formulation of circumstances of that era.

Research objective:

The main aim of this paper is to categorize and finally represent press policy. In the pursuit of this purpose, the intentions and policies were not posited as premises for understanding content and results and effects, but through analysis of content, it was intended to study policies and finally present a portrait of objective results of their execution.

Research method:

Documentary research methods and library-based methods of research were applied for collecting of materials and analysis of content. The research methodology of this investigation is to study the recorded communication of human beings.

Iranian Press in the 1330s/ 1950s and 1340s/ 1960s formulated important issues such as the idea of liberation of art, the relation of Iranian art with modernism, the task of art and artist, etc. under the guidelines of three paradigms of progressivist, teaching-oriented and national art.

The attempt to explain the meaning of art and beauty is the first step in introducing the art which emerged from modernity and non-indigenous paradigms. The academic milieu saw the fine arts as an imported concept resulted from the artist’s creativity, sensibility and individuality. The press tried to explain the rules dominating an art isolated from the society and its needs. In the 1950s and 60s these attempts found a more integrated form, exploited to improve the public perception of modernist art. The explanation of the characteristics of the modern art in the press in those years would improve the public understanding of one of the manifestations of modernism on one hand, and was an attempt to find a market for Iranian modernist paintings and promote favourable views amongst affluent Tehran citizens, familiarising them with goals of the Iranian modern art. The question is, which voices and trends were better represented in the press in those years, and whether a picture can be drawn up of contradictory influential concepts of the cultural milieu of the time, through illustrated press texts.
