DIALOG IN ART: FROM PAINTING TO SCULPTURE
Abstract
Artist is also in contact with artworks as well as nature. Previous artwork can be a source of inspiration for another artist and his/her artworks. Under this dialogue established by the artist, as well as interest of the past, there is also the desire to discover what has not been seen in it, to rethink what has been done before with a new perspective, and to create a new story from it. Some artists do this only because they have a great deal of pleasure from the loot of the past. The use of forms in the past and the deliberate implementation of them are frequently encountered especially in contemporary art. Sometimes an artwork distinctly and sometimes reminiscent level transfers a part of itself to another artwork. This kind of dialogue in art is not limited to artworks. This dialogue among the artworks also seen in different art branches. It is just like from painting to sculpture. Artfully crafted paintings using brushes and paints deliver itself sharp, hard lines and textured surface such as wood, stone, bronz casting, fiberglas, polyester; sometimes they deliver a new dimension in the sculpture with smooth surface and realistic apperance. In a sense, the soul of the painting passes the sculpture. The old one comes back to life again and waits to be remembered and recognized by the audience. In this research, it is examined how the relationship between the sculpture and the painting and how the creative process, dialogue through the paintings they have chosen as inspiration in the sculptures of the artists, and the aesthetic values in the image are transferred from the two dimensions to the three dimensions. This process has been tried to be explained by examples from the artworks of artists such as Ann Hirsch, Anthony Caro, Seward Johnson, Juan Muñoz, Rebecca Szeto, Julie Rrap, Yinka Shonibare and Robert Arneson. With questions and answers of the reasons why artists choose these artworks as a source of inspiration, how they interpret and exhibit them will help us to understand how the existing and reproduced artwork and the past reflected on the art of today.
