The Fighting Cock Society (Persian: انجمن هنری خروس جنگی) was an Iranian progressive body devoted to the promotion of modern arts, including painting, drama, music, poetry and literature, established in 1949 by Jalil Ziapour alongside other avant-garde poets and artists. Other founding members of the Association were Gorgani (literature), (theater) and Morteza Hannaneh (music). The society published a magazine with the same title. The headquarters of the society was Ziapour's studio on Takht-e-Jamshid Street. He declared the society's purpose to be "a fight against the unrealistic traditionalism of the time" and chose a verse by Farrukhi Sistani as the motto of the society: "The story of Alexander is old and turned into a myth/ Bring a new word, for there is another sweetness to the new"
