Kemal İskender english version

Neşet Günal is the painter of large-scale and multi-figure compositions. (It would perhaps be more accurate to say “he is the architect” instead of painter). Just as a kilo of blue, in Gauguin’s words, is more blue than one gram of the same blue, the large-scale figure is more of a figure than the reduced size figure. In order to comprehend how effective the elements that constitute the inner dynamics of the figures in Günal’s painting are in large or life-like dimensions, it is a necessity to see the original artworks, not their prints.
