Faculty of Humanities and Letters Decks Its Halls

The Faculty of Humanities and Letters (FHL) has started decorating its corridors with art created by Bilkent Fine Arts students. In February, FHL hung eleven silkscreen prints (serigraphy), each by a different student, in its main corridor.

The young artists are Nevra Bilge, Aysen Doğan, Efe Eke, Atacan Kasal, Nimet Kurşuncu, Işıl Öndeş, Özgen Özcihan, Ardan Özmenoğlu, Ceylan Sağdıç, Nalan Sezginer and Ümit Tarık Yaşar. They produced the prints for the course "Introduction to Printmaking (Silkscreen Prints)" taught by Dr. Ilgım Veryeri Alaca in the Faculty of Fine Arts. Dr. Veryeri personally supervised the hanging of her students' prints, and also donated one of her own works to IBEF.
