This is a special feature edition of Artisans’ Quarterly Review featuring more details about us and the projects featured in our international television debut!

“Each week on Blank Canvas, we meet extraordinary artists and share in their stories of passion and dedication. What drove them to their art? How did it feel the first time they picked up that brush and filled up a blank canvas? Sometimes it is a form of personal expression, and other times, it is a way to preserve one’s heritage. A few rare artists even use their art forms to build bridges and foster dialogue, bringing people together. We also delve into the life of the artist, his fears and passions and ultimately how he uses his art form to make sense of the world and strengthen his connection to the divine.” – www.ebru.tv

The show features as an eleven minute segment of a half hour show featuring two artist profiles in each episode. Filmed on May 29, 2009 – the show will be aired on September 24th. We’re hoping that more networks pick up the EBRU programming soon, they are a growing Turkish based company that has an established worldwide audience.
