20th Century Yellow Floreal Turkish Art Deco Rug Designed by Zeki Muren, ca 1950

About the Item

Zeki Müren (1931 - 1996) was a famous Turkish singer famous for his bizarre costumes and his female makeup that made her a cultural icon in the 60s and 70s. Müren was also a versatile artist and a designer, who in the same years created drawings and patterns in neo-baroque style, then transformed into carpets for his home on the Bosphorus. Subsequently produced on a commercial scale, the Müren carpets are the expression of a particular artistic taste, with geometries that recall precious stones, abstract shapes and psychedelic designs, with which he challenged the aesthetic standards of his time and his country.
