Kemal Seyhan

Bearbeiten

Kemal Seyhan (born 1960 in Kayseri, Turkey[1]) is a contemporary artist.

Seyhan is most commonly known for his abstract oil paintings which he creates by drawing vertical and horizontal lines using a spatula and coating multiple layers on top of each other.[2] Over time Seyhan started implementing other materials in to his art, such as graphite and wood cut on paper. He is currently represented by the Istanbul and London based Pi Artwork Gallery.[3]

Seyhan was born 1960 in Kayseri. Along with his parents and 3 siblings he later moved to Istanbul where he spent his teenage years and graduated high school before attending Boğaziçi University to do coursework in sociology. At the age of 21 he moved to Vienna where he studied philosophy and art history at Vienna University. He then pivoted to study fine arts at the University of Applied Arts and later graduated from the Department of Painting and Graphics in Vienna. In 1996 Seyhan became an Austrian citizen. After living in Vienna for over 20 years, the artist moved back to Istanbul. Seyhan has been living and working both in Istanbul and Vienna since 2004.
