Abstract:

Mankind, who learned to live in peace with nature in the past, has moved away from nature along with the urbanization today. In the world we live at present, industrialization and modernization, as well as the rapid increase in population, cause great harm to this process in which nature is considered sacred and protected. As a result of this, these negative developments have also changed the perspective of human beings towards nature. In fact, nature has always been the main source of art from primitive societies until today. Depending on the development processes in societies, artists have brought differences in their view of nature. Many artists, who were interested in the beauty of nature in the pre-modern era, are trying to draw attention to the exploitation of nature today. These artists have also undertaken the role of raising awareness in the societies they live in with their artworks. Therefore, there is an increase in artistic movements emphasizing the importance of nature today, where many organic destructions caused by technological developments are accelerating. In this study, while examining the relationship between nature and art and the artworks produced by artists for nature sensitivity, it has been tried to benefit from the methods of work analysis and literature review, which are qualitative research methods. The purpose was to remind the lost value and consciousness by considering the artworks of the artists on nature.
