Abstract:

With the use of many artistic trends from different perspectives, artists have been constantly seeking new, untested searches. The use of ready-made objects came to the forefront, along with Dadaism, which shook the borderline approaches to the materials used in art. Apart from presenting the ready-made object only as an art object, the collacation with the ceramic, which is a traditional material, strengthened its conceptual meaning through figurative art. The animal and human figures, which form one of the main themes of art, have changed their form from the past with daily aesthetic concerns. The appeal of figurative art has created new discourse practices with the compositions he has created with the ready object. The emphasis in the figurative works, which are shaped in direct relation to the new form, the search for forms, focuses on the use of ready-made materials, while the narrative details come to the forefront. The use of ready-made objects in the figure is often seen in today's ceramic artists as well as in different disciplines. The addition of the ready-made objects created new spaces for himself in an approach that forced the boundaries in figurative sculptures made of ceramic material. Both the figurative sculpture and the use of the ready-made material are common expressions in this metaphor. The use of ready-made materials in ceramic figures is exemplified through the artists, and conceptual approaches are evaluated on the axis of this union.
