An Iranian museum holds a rare exhibit of American art, reflecting on war
By MEHDI FATTAHI
Updated 11:43 AM EDT, May 8, 2026TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — "The artworks are distinctly American — famed pieces in vivid colors wrestling with themes of war, violence, pop culture and commercialism. What’s startling is where they’re on display: In a museum in the Iranian capital, at a time the two countries are locked in conflict.
"While the city’s streets are lined with anti-American billboards and posters, #Tehran’s Museum of Contemporary Art opened an exhibit this week of six works by three American Pop artists of the 1960s -- #RoyLichtenstein, #RobertIndiana and #JamesRosenquist – mainly chosen for their #AntiWar themes.
"The works come from the museum’s large collection of masterpieces of American and European modern art that was acquired by the wife of the former shah in the 1970s. Most of it has been kept out of view since the Western-backed monarch was ousted by the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
"After living under #USIsraeli bombardment for weeks, the young men and women strolling the gallery felt a resonance from the works.
"Some contemplated #Rosenquist’s 'F-111,' a collage dating to the era of the U.S. bombardment of #Vietnam that critiques America’s #MilitaryIndustrialComplex with images of a warplane’s fuselage, a #nuclear #MushroomCloud and a child’s face."

#Trump’s #Iranian campaign: an #illegal #war that risks becoming the new normal.
The #usisraeli military action will test the fragile rules governing the use of force.
The killing of #Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, by a US-Israeli strike is a targeted #assassination of a head of state. It also marks a grave escalation in a region already burdened with smouldering wars and fragile states.
The consequences of the deliberate strike will reverberate across a #MiddleEast marked by the aftershocks of foreign intervention. Revulsion against the hardline regime in Tehran, or the desire for a better future for the Iranian people, does not confer a legal justification.
Force is lawful, under the UN charter, only in self-defence against an imminent attack or with security council approval. Neither condition has been met. There was no evidence of an “instant, overwhelming” Iranian attack being prepared. What Trump’s #OperationEpicFury looks like is not pre-emption but prevention: a decision to eliminate a future risk while an enemy appeared weak. It is a war of choice. Mr Trump’s call to #overthrow a #sovereign government was extraordinary.
Unlike pre-emptive wars, preventive ones are deemed #unlawful because they grant the powerful licence to #strikeatwill. The distinction is important; it is why many European governments rejected #Russia’s justification of its invasion of #Ukraine by claiming to head off a future threat. Law cannot be optional for allies and binding only for adversaries. The domestic foundations of Trump’s action are also shaky. There’s little public support in the US for this #attack, and #Congress was not asked to #authorise #hostilities. There will be even less appetite as the #civiliandeath toll mounts and #USsoldiers come home in #bodybags.
