The special Workshop of research on Tehran was held in the second conference of the phenomenology of the urban landscape as “Public Space Aesthetic “at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Tehran. Visit of Dr. “Martine Bouchier” from Tehran and her interpretations on some parts of the city can be considered a chance for evaluating the approaches and intervening methods of beautification in Tehran. Although citizens are the primary users of landscape, hearing expert opinions with a distinctive approach can offer a new definition from the city: recalling the existing capacities of the city, which is not detectable by daily observations and reminds us to recognize our mistakes that have occurred due to misunderstandings of aesthetics.
This program was an opportunity to criticize aesthetic actions in Tehran from a different viewpoint rather than saying “everything is good” or “no positive action is achieved”. Tehran aesthetic actions in comparison with global aesthetic experience provided a more open position to be reviewed in Tehran beautification.
