Hi all steemians friends Tonight we will go to the beautiful world, the beauty and self-expression of calligraphy artists.
in Turkish culture the art of calligraphy plays a special role. In this school is not taught, but there are many teachers and schools, where you can get a great profession if you want.
I always like the direction of calligraphy, but for this you must have the ability and drawing. This is the trait that has robbed me. Pictures are always made for me by my father. My work in drawing is even scary. Therefore, I am acting in a beautiful contemplation role, which is also not bad.
During the week I have an obsessive week to go to the Calligraphy Museum in Istanbul. Unfortunately, the museum is closed for reconstruction. We did another day walking around Istanbul and went to the town hall. This is Fatih district. There, people with such machines stood up, horrible to take photos. Below I will explain why. At first I took pictures of the bushes, but then I got a bit of courage and quickly photographed the main administrative building in Istanbul.
The fact is that recently at Kadykoy I got into an interesting situation. I saw a beautiful old house with lanterns and started taking pictures. Someone started shouting very loud not in Russian. It turned out that this cop was talking to me. I was almost hit. In Turkey, this is quickly done. My husband beat me up from the police and explained that we happened to be. All photos have been deleted. In a beautiful old house there is a police station. But I can not even think that in such a beautiful house there might be a cop.
After the bush my happiness smile! I saw a workshop where a guy drew something. Apparently this is a famous Turkish calligraphic master Hattat Kamil Nazik. I'm lucky to have no limits!
What good people appear before our eyes. Looks like a wise man, and his eyes shine with joy. More people like that in Turkey! The workshop was so comfortable that I did not want to leave. And so many interesting books and pictures. But to distract you from work is not too good either.
Visiting the world-renowned calligrapher shop is a way of touching something magical. So many attributes and artwork that my heart filled with fun! I do not know much about this direction, but the pictures make me remember an unforgettable emotion.
Look at the master's work and learn many new things that could be better! I consider everything curiously, how many lines, brushes, paints, books, and unfamiliar things when they are called.
But I'm waiting for another surprise! We asked about the possibility of training with the master. And then he shows us how many students he has. It surprised us! A large magazine with brief information about students who graduated from Hattat training.
It turns out Khattat Kamil trains everyone for free! Who cares, welcome! This site has all the information and contacts.
In Turkey, calligraphy is business. The galleries, shops and shops are just great. There is also a private calligraphy art museum in Saryer. I will tell you more about this area in another article.
This photo in one store makes me very amused. Turkish artists have gathered on the canvas of many famous figures from different countries and different historical ages.
Look at Einstein's unique with attractive shoes, Putin in free poses, Tolstoy plays an accordion
Led by Lenin, see how many different characters!
How do you light a garden man, who put Marilyn Monroe? Stonehenge and pyramids in the background.
Sir Charles Chaplin found his place in the corner. Beethoven plays, Mike Tyson in the knockout system.
Look at Stalin with his pensive look and his famous surroundings. It is unfortunate that the photos were not very high quality. I hope you like the picture. The Turks can be surprising.
Thank you for your attention!
