The Turkish High Sculptors Society was founded on 22 April 1948. [1] [2] [3]
Turkish sculptors could not or had not become united to be organized professionally for a long time [4] until the Sculptors Society was founded in 1948 as Turkish Sculptors Society (Turkish: Türk Heykeltıraşlar Cemiyeti) [5] by Ali Hadi Bara, Nusret Suman, Yavuz Görey, Kamil Sonat, Hüseyin Anka, Ratip Aşir, Kenan Yontuç, Turgut Pura, Hakkı Atamulu and Burhanettin Durupınar. [6] In 1961, the name was changed to Turkish High Sculptors Society (Turkish: Türk Yüksek Heykeltıraşlar Cemiyeti). [7] [8] Through those years, until at least 1974, the organisation continued to operate without being able to be recognised as a functioning and effective professional body according to some sources. [4] Other sources have stated that the society has undoubtedly been a necessary organisation for the international art scene of sculpture and has become a large collection of artists that has even brought forth an important exhibition (1968) with the efforts of İsmail Gökçe, [9] who was the president of the society for some time. [10] Muzaffer Doğan Ertoran was also the president for some time. [11]
In 1988 it was re-established in a second period by Ali Teoman Germaner, Namık Denizhan, Tamer Başoğlu, Berika İpekbayrak, Meriç Hızal, Rahmi Aksungur, Şahabettin Köksal as the Sculptors Society (Turkish: Heykeltıraşlar Derneği). [8]
The Turkish High Sculptors Society organises exhibitions every year, supporting sculpture and sculptors. [12]
