In fact, the general atmosphere in any painting is a reporter of artist’s thought and insight. By examining the foundational of ontology in their approach we have found some similarities and differences between the Iranian painting and the Far East painting. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between ontology foundations and painting space. In fact, we are looking for: is the concept of “existence” and “absence ” ( in ontology) effective in negative and positive space painting? To prove this goal, we have analyzed the aesthetics and visual structure in their paintings and compare them in some concept such as (time, place, color, …). The research method used in this paper is analytical-descriptive and the library resources have been used for these concepts. This study concludes something that be represented in Iranian and the Far East paintings involves artist’s insight into the knowledge of ontology, so we can see filled space in Iranian painting and empty space in Far East painting which is proved by a comparison of the visual structure of their works. %> http://kimiahonar.ir/article-1-1547-en.pdf %P 81-100 %& 81 %! %9 Research %L A-10-1-233 %+ %G eng %@ 2251-8630 %[ 2019
