Abstract
It is essential to understand the multifaceted relationships that are formed among the works of art and make it possible to understand the meaning of the produced work. The problem of the current research is to understand how the "accumulation" of Kurosh Gulnari's work is formed and meaningful. This work is made by gluing a large number of coins onto a piece of metal written in Nastaliq script in the shape of the word "money". So far, this work has not been an independent research subject and it is necessary to analyze and evaluate it in the context of contemporary art developments. For this purpose, Gérard Genet's theory of transtextuality, which provides the possibility of interpreting works of art in intertextual relationships, has been used. The main goal of this research is to understand the possible semantic system of "accumulation" through intertextual reading. The main question is, how does "accumulation" become meaningful in relation to other works of art of recent decades? The current research is qualitative in terms of developmental goal, in terms of descriptive-analytical method, in terms of library and documentary data collection, and in terms of data analysis, and it has been analyzed by relying on the intertextual approach. The result of the research shows that it will not be possible to understand the meaning of this work without intertextual reference to the works that have been produced in recent decades. "Accumulation" forms a semantic system by creating intertextual relationships with works of art such as Parviz Tanavoli's "Hitch" sculpture and "Persian Money Maker Calligraphy" by Mahmoud Bakshimokher. In addition to materials and materials for the construction and application of calligraphy; The intertextual aspect in this work is the self-expression of the obsolescence of art, which can be found in the text of the logic of postmodern capitalism.
