Origins and History
Iranian contemporary art has a rich history that dates back to the pre-Islamic era. The Persian Empire was renowned for its intricate and detailed art and architecture. However, the contemporary art movement in Iran began in the early 20th century and was heavily influenced by Western art movements such as Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism. In the 1960s and 1970s, Iranian artists began to incorporate Islamic and Persian motifs into their work, resulting in a unique fusion of traditional and modern art.
