- Gürdal Duyar (20 August 1935 – 18 April 2004) was a Turkish sculptor, known especially for his monuments to Atatürk and busts of famous people. His art is characterized by a modern expressionist style balanced with abstraction. He is considered one of the pioneers of modern figurative sculpture in Turkey. Although Duyar was also a painter and was noted for his sketching, his best known works are the public sculptures that can be found in the different parks and squares of Istanbul. Duyar was a student of Rudolf Belling and Ali Hadi Bara at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Istanbul, before spending some time abroad after graduating. He worked on sculpture, especially on busts, in Belgium, France and Switzerland in the beginning of his career as a freelance artist. Following his return to Turkey, he became known as a sculptor of Atatürk monuments after garnering significant attention for his Uşak Atatürk Monument (1965). In the period that followed he made several more Atatürk monuments around Turkey, and also held the first exhibition of his work (1968). Later in his career, many sculptures Duyar made were damaged, removed or lost; most notably, the controversial 1974 removal of Güzel İstanbul. He joined the Turkish High Sculptors Society and over the years was commissioned for various works, such as the Borazan İsmail Monument (1972), Kayseri Atatürk Monument (1974) and Âşık Seyrani Monument (1976). Duyar held exhibitions of his sculptures and paintings, both individual and alongside other artists. His later major sculptures are Şairler Sofası (1998), Abdi İpekçi Peace Monument (2000) and Necati Cumalı (2002). Among his other public sculptures are the many busts that can be found in Sanatçılar Park. Duyar died in 2004 in Istanbul at age 69. (en)
