Abstract
Türkiye’de Cumhuriyetin ilanı ile siyasi ve toplumsal yapıda görülen değişimler, devlet tarafındanbelirlenen modernleşme çizgisinde gelişir. Özellikle kentlileşme ve kentsel yaşamın getirdiği yaşampratikleri, 20. yüzyıl Türkiye’sini gelenekselden farklı bir yere taşır. İçinde geliştiği toplumundinamikleriyle şekillenecek olan Cumhuriyet Dönemi Türkiye’si için inkılâplar çok önemlidir. Devletçilikaltında gerçekleşecek olan inkılâplar, salt siyasi yapıyla sınırlı kalmayacak ulusal bilincin altında kültürelmilliyetçiliği de geliştirecektir. Öyle ki tek partili dönemde devlet destekli Halkevleri açılacak, sanatçılarAnadolu’ya gönderilerek, kırsal bölge yaşayanı da yeni sanat ortamıyla tanışmış olacaktır. ErkenCumhuriyet Dönemi sanatçıları arasında yer alan Şeref Akdik de İnkılâpçı ressamlardan biridir.Kentlileşme çizgisinde gelişen modern hayatı, yeni yaşam mekânlarını, yeni imgesiyle Türk kadınını,gelişen sanayi kollarını ve işçi sınıfını betimler.Bu çalışmada ressam Şeref Akdik’in 1930’lardan 1960’lara uzanan süreçteki resimleri bağlamında erkenCumhuriyet Dönemi’nin kentlileşme olgusu, yeni çalışma mekânları ile bu mekânların kullanıcıları vedeğişen yaşamlarındaki kesitler üzerinden ele alınmıştır.
After the declaration of the Republic, changes in the political and social structure advances in the direction of the course of modernisation determined by the state. The lifestyles brought about particularly by urbanisation and urban life carries the 20th century Turkey towards a non-traditional place. Reforms are fundamental for the Republican-period Turkey, which will be shaped by the dynamics of the society where it flourishes. The reforms that will materialise under etatism will not only be limited to the political structure but will also reinforce cultural nationalism under the national conscience. So much so that Community Houses sponsored by the state will be established during the single-party period and artists will be sent to Anatolia, to acquaint the residents of rural areas with the new ways of art. Şeref Akdik, an artist of the early Republican period, is one of the Revolutionary painters. He depicts the modern life flourishing in the course of urbanisation, new living spaces, Turkish woman with her new image, developing areas of industry and working class. This study discusses the urbanisation phenomenon of the early republican period, in terms of new workspaces and the users of these workspaces, as well as a slice of their changing lives, within the context of the paintings of the artist Şeref Akdik, from the 1930s to the 1960s.
