Ahmet Gunestekin

Ahmet Günestekin was born in 1966. His works span painting, conceptual art and constructions sculpture. For Ahmet Günestekin, a self-taught artist, art is a passion which has driven him since his childhood. Günestekin’s works can be briefly described as the interpretation of the oral narratives, legends and mythology from Anatolian, Mesopotamian and Greek civilizations using free technique. He creates optical and vibrant works, with the solar disc as one of his occurring motifs. The figurative way of expression is present in all his oeuvres, even though in an abstract stylized way. In all his contemporaneous works, the characters, symbols and scenes are taken out of ancient times, and these characters are symbolic, woven into symbolic tales about the essential questions of mankind.
