Are you saying that you have a UIView subclass that's more than just a UIImageView, and you want to pass the image into that view to display it? In that case, you should make a new UIImage @property in your UIView subclass, and then (assuming you have a @property referencing it in your VC) just set that view property from your VC.

You don't need to access the UIView, you can simply do this in you VC class file :

self.yourImageViewName.Image = yourImageName ;

You can make a new class file of type UIView controller with a @property of type UIImage * and assign your UIView to it, then pass your image to that property.

if you want my opinion, you should add ImageView to your VC and pass your image to it (imageView.image).
