AHMET FITOLOĞLU
Red portraits, 2025 — Ahmet Fitoloğlu, 2025, Acrylic on canvas

Signed A.Fitol 25, a crowd of portraits — foremost a central female figure in a blue dress, behind her another woman with yellow hair, and around them other faces shifting in red and orange tones. The turquoise ground brings forward the warm red figures while yellow accents balance the composition's light. What is typical of Fitoloğlu's mature portraits: creating not a scene but an atmosphere. The painting is not the record of a specific event but a colour map of the artist's inner world. Red, defined in the manifesto as 'sudden ruptures and excitements within life,' has here entered the figures' skin, illuminating them from within.
