Etel Adnan frequently used landscape as a starting point for her art, drawing inspiration from Van Gogh's approach to capturing the essence of nature on the canvas. Like Van Gogh, she sought to convey the power and beauty of the natural world through her unique color palette and painting style. Adnan believed that her paintings, much like Vincent's, had the ability to transcend language barriers and connect with people on a deeper level.
In her art, Adnan found a visual idiom that transcended cultural boundaries, allowing her to communicate her ideas and emotions in a universal way. Her landscapes, often characterized by simplified forms and vibrant colors, echoed the boldness and expressiveness of Van Gogh's work. The exhibition at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, titled "Colour as Language," showcases not only Adnan's paintings but also her leporello works, concertina-style books, tapestries, and literature.
Furthermore, the exhibition delves into Adnan's unique life story, which spans several cultures and languages. It explores the impact of growing up in a multicultural environment on her artistic development and how it shaped her perspective and artistic expression. The text is presented in both English and Dutch, allowing visitors to appreciate Adnan's art in its original language and context.
Overall, "Colour as Language" provides a captivating insight into Etel Adnan's artistic journey and her profound connection with nature and the power of art to transcend cultural boundaries.
