Synopsis
Ceramics, which has taken place in human life in Anatolia since the Neolithic period, has reached the present day by taking shape and developing according to the lifestyle of the societies it belongs to. Ceramic, which takes place in human life as functional architectural elements and auxiliary materials, has become a material that draws attention by painting and sculpture artists in the middle of the 20th century and is used to embody emotions and thoughts, by getting rid of functionality. The modernization process of ceramics, which developed with this European-centered innovation in the use of ceramics, was also reflected in Turkey, and ceramic production, which has a deep-rooted history in Anatolia, took on a new face. In the 1950s, ceramic works began to be produced by contemporary Turkish ceramic artists, which developed in parallel with Europe, completely moved away from the functional aspect, and completely embodied forms of artistic expressions. The adventure of contemporary Turkish ceramics continues today, thanks to ceramic artists, who show creativity and productivity in the country and around the world.
