Abstract


Aliye Berger , who has a privileged place in The Contemporary Turkish Painting Art , stayed away from the generation clash of her time and various groupings. Her having a privileged place, and her life without giving attention to social pressure is the result of reflecting her own her life style to her works. Her artistic style is just like an action which has a fictional expression upon her own identity.

People whom we can call genuine artists can easily assimilate polyphony in life and with some sensibility they can spend a whole life to reflect these with some bravery. Just as Aliye Berger, her  art is also fed by her life. Her actions are a part of  her life and create their own images. Thus, her works turn into their genuine feature.

In this paper, it is aimed to understand the identity of  Aliye Berger through her print makings. As a woman artist who has gone beyond her own age with an analysis through her drawings, it is aimed to investigate her artistic personality and extraordinary sensitivity. This study is neither a history of art nor a biography of literary agent; it is an approach with the artist’s eye Berger’s drawings. Trying to understand her through the fancy world she created, insight of beauty, a place of fiction, technical restructuring, criticisms related to her art and the visual materials and by investigating her works we wanted to create a written portrait of Aliye Berger.
