Kemal Yazici

Kemal Yazici grew up in a small village in Rheinland Pfalz, when his parents moved to Germany he was only 7 years old. As the son of a worker father, he had limited chances to engage with art and especially painting. He had no idea of becoming an artist. His life changed when he saw paintings of his friend when he was 16 years old. After that point, painting has become his passion.
But life has taken him and his sense of art to a different level. As he was working in the metal industry until he was 24 years old, he re-discovered his passion. He took the bold step, went back to school and studied architecture. During his studies with Prof. Henner Herrmanns, he learned some techniques of painting. Combined with his passion for abstract art, this technique gave him all the tools he needed to turn his thoughts into an interesting piece of art.

Style of Kemal Yazici as an Artist
Kemal Yazici did some of his best acrylic and oil painting for his wife. When they were unable to find a piece of elegant and modern art in Bodrum, Kemal Yazici took his brush in his hand and started to paint what they wanted for their home in Bodrum.
Kemal Yazici mainly creates his artworks by overlapping of colors, multiple layers of colors on stretched canvas.
Acrylic and oil painting with different colors spread with a squeegee, different metal and plastics tools as well as construction tools. For him, modern art has no limit. As an artist, he is inspired by the leading modern art painters like Mark Rothko but especially Gerhard Richter.

As a self-taught artist, Kemal Yazıcı believes that the soul of art is the most important element in an artwork. Art is about passion, emotions, colours and combination of all these elements. In his paintings, viewers can see the harmony of materials, shapes and colours in an abstract form. His technique is shaped around acrylic and oil painting with inspiration from emotions. He is currently living and working in Dubai but he is also painting in his home in Bodrum.
