Impact assessment of Tehran contemporary painting on citizens With emphasis on three dominant approaches: monumental, abstract, simulation

Today the face of Tehran metropolis defaced and in term s of identity and communicating with citizens is extremely weak. The urban landscape has direct connection with urban walls, and from this perspective, the significance of wall art can be considered. Wall paintings that can, along with the improvement of the quality of the environment, provide a means for transmitting the themes of identity, religion, history, culture, and so on. The fundamental belief in this study is that paintings with conceptual (abstract) themes and newer techniques of execution, and more consistent with other applied approaches, such as simulation and memory, are more successful in terms of cohesion and identity and their impact on citizens. Researches that have been carried out so far have examined most of the technical aspects of wall-painting and technical capabilities, but this research has specifically focused on three dominant approaches to contemporary urban painting.

The data base was based on the study of library documents as well as survey and distribution of the questionnaire. Therefore, 300 questionnaires were distributed in different regions of Tehran with the same conditions and randomly distributed among the three groups .The results of the research reflect the fact that the late mural paintings from the viewpoint of Tehranian citizens are more favorable than the works before them(Wall paintings of the 70s and 80s ), This research clearly shows that the abstract approach, despite being new, is considered as a new experience in the urban space of Tehran. Although there are still shortcomings in the message transfer, then the simulation approach and then the memorandum approach have gained the highest scores, the results of which are raising the level of artistic understanding of citizens, paying attention to the themes and techniques of execution, and expressing the desire for quality against Quantity
