Abstract
Focusing on āšūrāī flags, this article studies the issue of garden yearning (Hasrat-e Bagh) or desire for paradise (Tamannay-e Maynoo) as a main incentive in abstract art of Iran. For this purpose, a comparative and analytic comparison is made between āšūrāī flags and Iranian landscape architecture (or Iranian garden) on the basis of two main factors, i.e. climatic conditions of Iran – land and manifestation of beliefs. The reference to and reflection of this desire in different Iranian – Islamic arts including illumination and painting are demonstrated and then evident similarities of these two cases are studied showing that the common spirit among all these arts is that of garden yearning/desire for paradise. In summary, regarding climatic and ideological considerations in the unconscious mind of Iranian artist, the presence of an ideal image or pleasant paradise has always been effective on his artifacts and hence all of his arts pertain somehow to this yearning, thirst and desire for returning and eternal residence in 7 that evergreen garden. Meanwhile, symbols applied in āšūrāī flags are affected by specifications of Iranian garden and that’s because of their relationship with religious beliefs and the embodied nostalgic image of that eternal and pleasant home which reflects the nature of this nostalgic desire more clearly than other Iranian art varieties.

Abstract
This article intends to study the issue of
representation in Pop Art. Here we define
representation as a process through which
the audience identifies an external reality
in the heart of the pictorial elements of a
tableau which is exterior to the pictorial
world or rather only familiar to his mind.
For this purpose, we would examine “representation”
from cave art to art of the
middle 20th century i.e. when the representational
elements in artistic work wane
for different reasons. But representation
regained its importance no sooner than the
emergence of Pop Art in 60s and consequently
representational pictorial elements
has so far turned into one of the critical issues
of postmodern events in art. This article
would analyze the fundamental artistic
and social reasons for such attention to representation in Pop Art while remaining
focused on works of the distinguished artists
of the movement, those like Jasper
Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Richard
Hamilton and James Rosenquist.

Abstract
The Iranian carpets, relative to clime and culture of the productive societies, have accepted various visual and technical characters. Scientific and Methodological study of this character and their formative principles is one of the permanent debates among researchers. The main issue of this research is to consider the diversity and individuality of research and analyze methods in carpet studies. This pluralism has caused some problems such as evaluation and confirmation of research data. According to capability of stylistic knowledge at study and typology of art species, researchers continually have asserted the necessity of stylistic knowledge’s utilization for carpet studying’s. The first aim of the study is terminological redefinition of stylistic knowledge’s concepts related to handmade carpet characters and the second aim is offering a scientific methodology to stylistic researches on carpet designs and motifs. By paying attention that recognition of stylistic elements and their evolution are the main axis of stylistic studies, the questions of this research are concentrated on, 1-recognition of specific concepts of stylistic keywords in carpetology, 2-the process of methodological research on carpet designs and motifs from a stylistic point of view, 3-recognition of affective factors in evaluation of carpet designing styles. Results have shown, specific concepts and terminology of stylistic knowledge have the capability of adapting with different aspects of carpet designs and motifs. Thus the methodology of stylistic knowledge and its various approaches can be used for stylistic designinng of carpets or recognition of affective factors in the appearance or the decadence of various designing styles. This study is done using of library sources and field experiences and methodologically it has used descriptive - analytical method.
