Hulusi
Halit born at Koloni, Paphos, Cyprus in 1954. He started painting at
the age of six. Hulusi nominated by Ali Atakan as the best pupil among
all the Turkish-speaking Cypriot secondary schools in Paphos. In 1969
he got the highest award at a youth contest among all the
Turkish-speaking secondary schools in Cyprus with his painting "Young
Couple". In April 1974, Halit moved to Berlin where he studied
Advertising and Communication at the University of Arts in
Berlin (HDK, 1980-1986). From 1989 to 1992 he received professional
education as a tutor. Now he applied his artistic skills in his
professional work as educator. The experience he gained during his
youth has a strong impact on his paintings, which reflects repeatedly
his cubic tradition. His special interest is in the artistic dialogue
with nature. For the past six years he exhibits in different Berlin
Galleries. After about 31 years he presented, on 13th September 2005,
his first exhibition “Glances at Cultures” at the "Melina Mercouri"
cultural hall in Nicosia, Cyprus.
