Süleyman Özderin

He was born in 1971 in Avanos district of Nevşehir. He completed his primary and secondary education in Ankara. In 1995, he graduated from Hacettepe University Faculty of Fine Arts "Interior Architecture and Environmental Design" Main Art Department with an achievement award. In 1999, he opened his first solo exhibition at Akbank Art Gallery and participated in many competitive exhibitions. In 2002, he received the Honorable Mention Award in the 13th Tekel Traditional Painting Competition, in 2015, he won the First Prize in the Gallipoli Painting Competition organized by the Gallipoli Memorial Club located in Australia in cooperation with Turkey; (the artwork was also permanently accepted into the Museum of the Gallipoli Memorial Club in Australia), and in 2016, he won the First Prize in the Yunus Emre Painting Competition with the theme "Like Yunus" organized by Eskişehir Governorship. In 2003, he completed his Master's thesis research titled "Content and Form in Abstract Painting" at Hacettepe University Institute of Social Sciences, and in 2011, he completed his Doctoral thesis titled "Ontological Foundations of Contemporary Abstract Art" at Gazi University Institute of Social Sciences. In his doctoral study where he researched the ontological foundations of contemporary abstract art, under the title "Analytical Hierarchical Structure Concept in Global Axis System," he wrote the "ontological" foundations of abstract art as a scientific theory whose source is entirely his own and has no equivalent in world art literature. Although it has not been introduced yet, understanding and grasping this unique "Ontological Theory Design" is extremely deep and difficult. In his works, he uses a special "art and design technique" called "Pictorial Designs with Textural Images" that he has developed over the years. The artist, who received the Associate Professor Dr. title in November 2018, continues his work in the fields of design and art at Akdeniz University Faculty of Fine Arts Graphics Department, and has many articles published in national and international peer-reviewed journals.
