THE NEW EXHIBITION OF THE BIZCE CERAMIC ATELIER HAS OPENED IN URLA

The new exhibition of Bizce Ceramic Atelier, which started its work 13 years ago with Yildizca Seramik, founded by Yildiz Parlakyigit, was viewed at Pintura Art Gallery on Urla Art Street between 5-27 October.



Urla Mayor Selcuk Balkan opened the exhibition of Bizce Ceramic Atelier, which was founded by women who love ceramics, at Pintura Art Gallery. The opening of the exhibition, which attracted great attention, was attended by Fureya Koral's student Bingul Basarir and Prof. Sevim Cizer too.


70 works were exhibited in the exhibition, which included the works of 13 women with different professions such as architects, engineers, academicians, journalists and business managers. Women ceramicists, who set out with the manifesto "Art is not just for art, but for everyone", appeared before art lovers by blending their artistic works with their techniques.



Urla Mayor Selcuk Balkan said at the opening that women's productivity in artistic life is a phenomenon that advances society. Stating that Art Street is the heart of culture-art tourism for Urla, Balkan said, “It is very nice that women participate in social life and that such valuable works emerge. Urla is a city of culture, art, tourism, gastronomy and education. "I would like to thank all our artists who give meaning to our art street."



Master artist Bingul Basarir, who attended the opening ceremony, reminded the ceramic tradition in Anatolia and said, “These lands are full of culture and inspire people. They are nourished, and that's why they express themselves through art. Ceramics were produced uninterruptedly in these lands. Think of the Anatolian woman, she has a way of expressing herself in everything from her carpets to her knitting."


Prof. Sevim Cizer also stated that ceramic art has existed in Anatolia in every period and said, “There has been a greater trend towards ceramic art lately. Because this is our ancient art. Ceramics have existed in these lands since prehistory. As cultures and civilizations change, ceramics that carry their own lines and put their own stamp on them have always been produced without interruption.”
