| Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris |
| In this study we discuss the relationship between the concepts of abundance, peace and painting. After a general look at different definitions and approaches to the concept of abundance, we will choose the cultural and artistic approach and, in this context, take a brief look at the painters who used the concept of abundance together with peace. Then we will look at the style of Florescencism, invented and introduced by the contemporary painter Lida Sherafatmand, and the related paintings that have been shown in many prestigious exhibitions around the world, in the context of one of the main approaches of this style, which is to represent the concept of abundance. The abundance of fresh and bright flowers with vivid and promising colors in Lida Sharafmand’s paintings is formally and conceptually in line with one of the clauses of the Florescencism manifesto, which refers to the concept of abundance as a way to develop peace. The paintings selected and presented in this review have been examined in the same two basic analytical directions, namely form and meaning, so that the depth of the concept of abundance and its use in line with the goal of peace in these paintings can be broken down and presented to the reader. ©, Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. |
