Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

This paper whose data has been gathered by library method aims at investigating caricature from semiotics perspective. The theoretical approach of semiotics is one of the theories by which caricature can be examined. It seems that among semiotics theories, layered semiotics theory presented by Farzan Sojoodi may be proper for this visual medium; entering this theory involves explaining sign and text from this viewpoint. Caricature concept and its commencement have been assessed and it has led to understanding Iran contemporary caricature from semiotics perspective. Since the debate of contemporary caricature art is so extensive, three drawings have been selected from three different generations and have been discussed in the form of case study.
