Sadeghi inspiration from the cultural heritage of Iran is not just aesthetic; the presence of Persian sagas and legends, epic poems and philosophies, and even the teachings of Gnosticism loom large in his work.

one world twenty one centuries

By Aziz Anzabi

In different periods of time art and corporate world have had a tight communication and a effective interaction on each other. In this work the antique Greek pottery is a symbol of the western and I have changed the symbol and meaning of the potter's tale by replacing a coca-cola bottle between the two soldiers instead of the original image and the surprise looks of the soldiers for what they have found is incredibly odd in their own century. Under the pottery using a symbol of Iranian miniature for representing the westerns and replacing the logo of coca-cola instead of the Iranian calligraphy I have tried to show the effect of the corporate world on art and culture .

The deep effect of these corporate world on the life of people is shown using the ancient pottery and the crumpled paper containing the picture of a miniature.

Qahveh Khanehei Painting (Tea from painting features it may be House style of painting) considered among visual arts. But, oil painting on canvas, Qajar prior to illustration of this period. traditional and true Iranian art, we Q ahveh Khanehei painting is an should acquire knowledge about Iranian painting style combined Qahneh Khanehs . These places with European techniques (oil and with their old history have been the color on wall and convass). It was keeper of our old traditions, about eighty years ago that this thoughts and tastes. In method was formed among QahvehKhanehs the narrators of laypeople. The characteristic Shahnameh told about natioanl of this art is its popularity and stories with much enthusiasm. distance from court arts. Unknown Therefore, in the course of long artists who had some experience centuries, QahvehKhanehs took in painting on tiles, were many characteristics, which are influenced by the atmosphere and important for their extensive ambience of Qahveh-Khanehs , contact with people. In fact along with Shahnameh-Khani QahvehKhanehs of old days played (reading verses from Shahnameh) the role of today mass media. This endeavoured to create simple and role had its due rules and beatiful views traditions, one of which being “ on the walls of Qahveh Khaneh QahvehKhane painting�. and on cloths.

Though they did not have any academic instructions, these artists succeeded to occupy a place in Iranian artistic history for themselves. For its presence in narrations and Shamayel gardani (carrying the icons) Qahveh Khanehei painting may be regarded a part of Iranian painting arts. And 22 on other hand due to its distance

In this style of painting, one can the imagination and enthusiasm of easily detect some elements of painting.

Miniature painting. As narration of stories in its climax incline towards poetry, the paintings of QahvehKhaneh some times tend to delicateness of miniature.

These are not much records concerning the history of this national art, because in its present form, it has been current since eighty years ago. But remaining paintings and plaster moulding indicate that some kind of this art existed in 18th and 19th centuries.

For example the paintings on tiles of Chehel Sotun Palace in Esphahan have been worked under Shah Abbass II and Nader, of course most of theme are Shabih Sazi (dramatic) and they are inspired by feasts, while Qahveh Khanehei painting is purely imaginary and the painter does not have any model and what he draws is merely that which goes in his mind.

Observing the present evidences he draws an imaginary picture of, for example, Karbala desert, Ashura epic, and Resurrection day and some epical pictures which indicate

Qahveh Khanehei painting which is towards them. For example in called Imaginary painting by many Rostam and Sohrab, Rostam’s face people, is an art with its recognized occupies a large place in the principles. Its main feature is painting and this shows the retaining the genuinenes of painter’s love of Rostam. In a portraits, in a way that even in religious painting the face of dealing scenes of feasts or epics, enemies and vicious people are as the painter makes his outmost ugly as possible. effort to paint the faces. This feature is due to the fact that “ In Qahveh Khanehei painting there state” and “ motion” are limited in is no limitation of subject and the this type of painting. In each painter’s hands are free to draw painting the faces convey the whatever he desires. Due to this subject intended by painter to reason, no painting could be ever onlookers. The painter of this style considered a criterion for other is an earnest narrator who works. In general one may devide consciously or unconsciously the subjects into three groups: represents the protagonists or religious, epic, feast and amorous antagonists with due emotions paintings.

11 key points to know to properly promote your ART Start with a definition According to the CNRTL, the artist is the one who practices a fine art and a craftsman who excels in his work, which has acquired a technique, control of implementation, know-how enabling it to reproduce ably a model or even invent a new style.

the artists involved, those for whom art is a way to express themselves, to denounce, decry. without forgetting the talent of course that even with few resources may be surprised by their approach to art and their growing talent 1 . "THE" golden rule: know how to communicate with your art!

However, the artist is more The love of art is unconditional and complex than that. Indeed, the pure. However, from the moment it technique is not sufficient for a is in the market, it becomes a man to be an artist. The artist is mercantile product like any other the author, the designer of a and to quote Warhol "Making universe, a creation of its own, a money is art , working is art and scientist, an inventor, a thinker. good business is the best art". Or, The work, for it to be successful controlled communication is almost should cause a feeling, a positive assured a sale! Moreover, the more emotion or completely the you communicate, the more you opposite. come to understand your target There are different types customer. More you close in your of artists: target, you will know more the masters of aesthetics, painters precisely how to respond to its style and academic talent. request. conceptual artists, constantly seeking novelty in the use of the material, the support, how to get a message ... They experience the 25 art.

2 .The status of professional artist You have to remove the head of the artist's image to the star Jeff Koons or so bohemian how Van Gogh bartering his paintings against a hot meal. The 21st century offers professional artists the opportunity to be surrounded and supported by organizations working for their 'integration' to society; the most famous being the House of Artists. Which organizes a service of free specialist legal advice on the law of artists.

The contribution of its members allow the creation of a welfare background coming to the aid of artists in large financial and professional difficulties.

The AGESSA (Association for the Social Security Management of Authors) meanwhile, collects social security contributions of artists to the original literary, dramatic, musical, choreographic, audiovisual, photographic and cinematographic.

3.The artist's interlocutors The profession of artist and art dealer are completely separate! So it is better for the artist to be guided by the advice of relevant experts the art market such as curators, gallery owners, art historians, auctioneers even collectors knowledgeable and obviously artists with more experience!

Every artist has an audience, so a supporter! Although tastes and colours do not discuss, there is no artist on earth whose work does not appeal unanimously. There are different ways for an artist to be supported: sponsorship Sponsorship is one of the oldest ways to support artistic creation.

The word comes to us from Caius Cilnius Maecenas, patron of arts and letters in ancient Rome. Today however, the patron means a person or entity that supports its influence or its financial resources is a cultural project.

26

For the little history, the Medici are known to have supported the artists of their time including Michelangelo figure. In our time, the "savvy" of this type of aid in the creation are mostly the Americans, who also adore the French heritage and its artists!

The protection and support of the arts and letter is a matter with which French don’t kid with!

Indeed, already in the Middle Ages, people had an obligation to encourage. Louis XIV said the patron king is the first monarch to support art. Following the French Revolution, the first cultural institutions appear as the National Archives, the National Library of France or the Museum Arts Centre. It will still wait for the 20th century and the Popular Front led by LÊon Blum appear to see the financial and administrative intervention of the state and the idea of ​democratization of culture.

However, it is Jeanne Lawrence, Malraux and of course Jack Lang that artists today have to say thank you for their contributions in the field of culture and arts.

Indeed, aid implemented by the state are numerous: municipal aid, aid DRAC (Regional Direction of Cultural Affairs), the FRAC (Regional Contemporary Art Fund), the European nursery for young artists, Fondation de France , the European Centre of Contemporary Artistic Events.

Crow funding is the English term for crowd funding. This simply involves the financial participation of a large number of people in the artist's project.

5. Set the price of your work In order to set the price of your work, you must take into account the following factors: the cost of materials (mediums, tools, paints, materials), quality of the media you are working and materials, dimensions, transportation, originality of production, the scarcity of work, popularity, won competitions and awards, commissions, the price of similar artists, the course of the art market, supplements (frames , glass, stone, ...).

6. Expose gallery Exhibit gallery is the first instinct of an artist to sell your art. Choose the right gallery for choosing your gallery is choosing a business partner. As in love and friendship, the current must go well and you have to share a similar artistic line with the gallery. So you must clearly identify your needs and ensure that the contract is in agreement with the latter. A true gallery is committed and has the element of risk! However, note that the gallery is remunerated on a commission ranging from 20 to 70% per work sold in different countries, the reputation of the gallery, the place it occupies in the market. This commission allows the gallery to pay the shipping cost of the works, the production of a press kit, the printing costs engendered by organizing a vernissage and an exhibition, participation fairs shows Regarding the choice of the gallery, as stated, this is a matter of taste and artistic preferences.

However, it is important to know that a good gallery, regardless of artistic orientation has generally

between ,ten to fifteen artists, hoping that you are one of them!

7. Successful exhibition If unfortunately you are not the proud collaborator and protected by a gallery, know that the ocean is far greater! Indeed, art offers the possibility to vary the scene of the most common to the most unusual.

The bars, cafes, hotels, merchants can accept that you bet the walls of your best work. After a nice place, trendy, attractive and strategic found, the work does not stop there! For your successful exhibition is set design and should be neat and thoughtful; an exhibition is not a sequence of pictures hanging one after the other without logical or no story to tell. The content is of course also important, do not neglect.

Moreover, it is closely related to your artistic identity making it shine through, at first glance we know that this is your work, your brand, your talent. Finally, as would say our Anglo-Saxon friends, last but not least: co-mmu-ni-ca-tion; it is obviously capital, fundamental and indispensable! Your exposure will be communicated better, the more 28 attire era crowds!

8. A shocking opening just completed!

To open your exposure in the rules of art, what better than a small 9. Online sale opening?

10. A delivery with confidence Last bit of advice to consider before deploying your talent to the world! Upon the sale of a work of art, whether in gallery or on the internet, we suggest you worry upstream delivery details.

This way you will be able to give the right information at the sale. Moreover, this serious professionalism sits down your credibility in the art market. Be careful to be sure as it should.

Make sure you work with a professional carrier if possible to

trust.

11. Abroad sale The sale abroad offers new perspectives to the artist. Foreign collectors do not necessarily look for the same work or the same aesthetic criteria. But how to go about selling outside of France?

What are the concepts to be known on the art market abroad?
