Beneath a crimson sunset sky, a deep-blue locomotive steams forward between slender poplars and trees blossoming in flecks of colour, bringing to life a forest landscape rendered with the fairy-tale precision of the naïve idiom.
Price on RequestAbout the Artist
Born in Konya in 1960, Bayram Gümüş moved with his family to Istanbul in 1967. A meeting with the painter Kasım Koçak in 1983 gave new direction to his practice; the following year he opened his own studio and began to earn his living as a painter. One of the leading representatives of Turkish naïve painting, he brings the joy of living and the delight of the everyday to canvas with a wholly distinctive sense of colour. He held his first solo exhibition in Ankara in 1985 and has since exhibited widely in Turkey and the United States.
