Abidin Dino was an artist and writer whose practice crossed drawing, painting, caricature, film, and literature. Fikret Muallâ: Drawings from Sainte-Anne approaches another artist through works made during periods of confinement, allowing Dino’s attention to line, vulnerability, and artistic witness to come forward. İlhan Berk turns toward a poet from Dino’s literary circle and offers a different kind of portrait, shaped by exchange between word and image. These books sit beside Dino’s broader history of illustrating writers and sustaining friendships with poets and painters. Fikret Muallâ: Drawings from Sainte-Anne offers the focused visual archive; İlhan Berk takes the more compact route into Dino’s continuing dialogue with poetry.
