Since the establishment of the Republic, we are witnesses to effording to form identity by Turkish painters in Turkish painting as in other areas of the arts. Turgut Zaim and Nurullah Berk are the first examples we can give.

Traditional interaction is still going on in the individual creations of young Turkish artists at the present.
