Fikret Mualla - "Nude"
Nudes: It is difficult for Fikret Mualla to ponder just like the classical artist attitude when creating a series of paintings. Portraits, model the identity of the person they represent but this does not show openly. Paintings that are within this group, such as a nude woman, he is more interested in relaying an average drawing of the figure rather then painting it. That is why “nudity”, has not been painted with an “erotic” vision. According to Abidin Dino Mualla’s female nudes and female heads are full of feelings and attractiveness. They have been “Drawn” and look like they are “not oil based”- maybe because of this they let the viewer get goose bumps from the young beauty. The nudes carry the magic of the unreachable goal. It is not woman, but womanhood in that. Mualla tresspasses the story, reaches to the general view. Maybe to understand womanhood, like Fikret he dreamt of them as much as he would dream and have waited.
