Course Objectives: | This course aims to investigate traditional Turkish arts within a perspective of contemporary Western art and design, to explore the influences of traditional arts modern artists, in comparison with Eastern Asia, Middle East and Africa. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; I.Students will be able to distinguish the forms in traditional Turkish arts. a.Tezhip b.Ebru (marble painting) c.Hat (caligraphy) d. Wood and glass work in architecture e.Ceramics f.Weawing and carpets g.Pottery h.Local handcrafts II.Students will explore the modern artists inspired by traditional Turkish arts. III.Students will identify the use of traditional forms and styles in other cultures. a.Traditional elements in Japanese and Eastern Asian arts b.Traditional elements in art of Middle Eastern countries. c. Traditional elements in African arts |
Course is structured as two periods. At the first period, students are informed on traditional forms of Turkish art. Second period focuses on the use of traditional motives, materials, techniques or style in modern artwork and design artifacts. |
