چکیده
رویدادهای دنیای مدرن منجر به ظهور اسطوره هایی نوین شده که در عین بهره گیری از تعریف سنتی اسطوره، اشکال جدید و متفاوتی از آن را ارائه می دهند. هنرمند نقاش معاصر نیز تلاش می کند در آثار خویش به جست وجوی کارکردهای گوناگون اسطوره های نوین برآید. پژوهش حاضر باهدف تحلیل چرایی، چگونگی استفاده و کارکرد اسطوره های نوین در نقاشی معاصر ایران صورت گرفته است. پرسش های پژوهش عبارت اند از: 1. چرا نقاشان معاصر ایران از اسطوره های نوین برای انتقال پیام اثر به مخاطب بهره برده اند؟ 2. نقاشان معاصر ایران چگونه و با چه کارکردی از اسطوره های نوین برای انتقال پیام اثر به مخاطب بهره برده اند؟ موردهای مطالعاتی این پژوهش 5 تابلو از میان آثار چهار نقاش معاصر ایران است. نتایج پژوهش گویای آن است که تحولات تاریخی چون جنگ های جهانی، ظهور مکاتب و ایدئولوژی های جدید و مصرف گرایی منبعث از جهان سرمایه داری را می توان از دلایل کلی نمودارشدن اسطوره های نوین در نقاشی ایرانی برشمرد. هنرمندان موردمطالعه علاوه بر اینکه نسبت به اسطوره های قدیمی رویکردی انتقادی داشته اند، این رویه را نسبت به اسطوره سازی های دنیای معاصر نیز در پیش گرفته اند و با بازسازی اسطوره های قدیم در بستر جدید، سعی در تسکین آلام خود نسبت به گذشته ی خوب ازدست رفته ونیز صلح طلبی، هویت یابی و نجات اصالت فرهنگی و اجتناب از ایدئولوژی های مخرب داشته اند.Analysis of Modern Myths in Contemporary Iranian Painting; A Case Study of the Works of Bahman Mohasses, Ali Akbar Sadeghi, Mahmoud Sabzi, and Mehran Saber
yths are narratives of human spiritual past; they are rooted in human beliefs and have emerged from the heart of ancient human adventures and efforts to justify and understand real or imaginary phenomena. As myths incorporated supernatural characteristics beyond the range of human abilities, they have been a significant and favorite subject in the human mind through several generations. The events and circumstances of the modern world have led to the emergence of modern myths that represent new and different forms of traditional myths while borrowing their definition. In contemporary world, we are confronted with constructed myths for particular purposes in politics and economics the growth and development or the decline and fall of which take place based on a predetermined plan. Similarly, in the field of art, the sensitive and capable artist has taken heed of such a process. A critical approach towards the constructed myths in art has led to the creation of modern myths that have been formed to express their concerns and particular world view in the works of these artists. Interacting with the surrounding world, contemporary painter attempts to explore the various functions of modern myths in the works of art. The present study aims to analyze why and how modern myths have been used and function in contemporary Iranian paintings. The research questions include: 1. why contemporary Iranian painters have utilized modern myths in order to communicate the message of the works? 2. How and with what function have they used modern myths to communicate the message of the works? This study is a basic theoretical research in purpose and takes up descriptive-analytical method with comparative approach. The required information was collected based on documentary and library research and observing the works that were gathered using computer-based identifiers and scanners. Moreover, the works were analyzed qualitatively.In this regard, this study examines 5 paintings selected from the works of four contemporary Iranian painters namely, Bahman Mohasses, Ali Akbar Sadeghi, Mahmoud Sabzi, and Mehran Saber.The results of the study indicated that historical changes such as the World Wars, the rise of new ideologies and schools of thought, and the consumerism resulting from the capitalist world could be recounted as the overall reasons for the emergence of modern myths in the works of Iranian painters.The present study first attempts to define myth and its variations in the contemporary world and the views of theorists, then it analyzes modern myths and the relationship between myth, art, painting, and modern myths. Consequently, the selected works of the artists under study are introduced and a logical analysis of the works is provided. Finally, the results of the study is presented separately in the form of comparative table of categorization of the artists based on their approach towards modern myths in painting.
