Gönül Şen, who has been painting in Germany for many years, opens her tenth solo exhibition at Galerie Vepa on April 8.
After her time as an art teacher in Turkey, Şen settled in Germany, where she attended the Düsseldorf Art Academy for four years. Gönül Şen, who has taken part in many group exhibitions so far and is now showing her pictures in Turkey for the first time, says: “In my pictures I put surface and color in the foreground and combine contour with flat values.” The exhibition can be seen until May 1, 1987.
The notice appeared in Milliyet on April 4, 1987. Translated from Turkish for senmenzel.com.
