Abstract (EN)
This study focuses on the interaction of language and object in the production of artworks in modern and contemporary art. In writing the art report, inspired by Joseph Kosuth's Context/Text and Text/Context works, which have common problems with the artist/writer, the report is divided into two parts. Following the first chapter with context on the evolution of beauty into aesthetics and how the scope of aesthetics changed, the purpose, historical process and changes in the use of language and objects and then everyday objects in plastic arts without modification in the period after the 20th century are summarized by giving examples of works of art and artists. In the third section, the artist/writer's works and sources of inspiration are included. In contrast to the objective and theoretical approach of the first part, the second part is constructed and exemplified with a more personal and subjective perspective, and by combining the two, this text is presented as a map of the artist/writer's mental journey in his production. While examining the journey of modern art throughout the 20th century from the focus of the use of ready-made objects in art, after dwelling on the examples of Dada, surrealism, Bauhaus, Pop Art and Conceptual art movements and the problematics and intentions in the production processes of these works, the ready-made objects created by the artist under the influence of today's socio-political and philosophical issues are examined. Object-based works are presented with similar examples from the past, and the difference in meaning between similar works (largely) arising from the change in historical context is explained through the expression of the change processes of political and theoretical problematics. Although the artist's general concern is the use of ready-made objects in art production and the relationship between objects and language, the existential suffering of contemporary people, rootlessness, belonging and migration, the individual's relationship with the state in the process of existence, and the questioning of the meaning constructed in the social context are emphasized in a mischievous manner in the works.
