ART
The communication tool with the highest interaction in the environment it actively exists in and in the world.
…
The symposium continued its innovative progression with artists from different art disciplines from many countries of the world. Besides art production, art conversations and discussions held with participating artists for ten days and the creation of environments where the personal works of the artists were presented were among the indispensable elements of the symposium, and they were also effective in enhancing the communication of the artists with each other. Since the environments where the artists produced their works were open to the public, the local people also witnessed the creation of the works. Thus, we encountered a group that could approach art, which had always been written with capital “A” and could not reach the public. In this sense, art, which had always been avoided, made a difference in people’s lives, even if in a certain segment. Moreover, with the voluntary participation of the artists in the symposium, where the communication language was primarily art, although the artists were foreigners, along with the participation of both children and adults, various workshops were held, and interaction with the environment was increased. To be honest, the symposium turned into a non-eclectic event that was interactive with the environment, assimilated by experiencing and changing, rather than being a place of art production for the purpose of exhibiting works behind closed doors. This resulted from the reflection of the personality of Tuncay Topcu, who likes to be always active and excited in life, who constantly communicates with his environment, briefly, who is outgoing and friendly, on his works.
