The use of symbols to communicate powerful ideas
has a long history in literature, poetry and arts. Symbol has
a loaded meaning and is an indirect way to express
opinions and ideas. Due to this qualification, politically
charged art has often relied on the device of symbol. The
paper discusses the use of symbols by Abdul Rahim
Nagori, a Pakistani artist known for his art works with
serious political connotations in his paintings. The study
suggests that Nagori gave new meanings to symbol
through juxtaposing them to political and social events in
the country and in doing so he gave a new meaning to
symbols. The paper analyzes a few of his works in the
context in which they were produced and interprets the
symbols he used to communicate his ideological
standpoint.
