Tradition and Future Create Each Other
The concepts of tradition and future in traditional Turkish arts are discussed in meetings, symposiums and meetings. Some people deny the future without sacrificing tradition. Those who advocate for the future, on the other hand, argue that tradition is a phenomenon from the past and that the classic should be abandoned. Although tradition and the future seem to be opposite concepts, in fact, they can basically go together. Every branch of art has a tradition, but there is no modern, there is only the development and progress of art. For this reason, it would be a more correct approach to use the term innovation instead of modernization. One of the cornerstones of these ancient arts, which we call "Traditional arts, Traditional arts" and similar terms, dating back centuries, is undoubtedly our art of illumination, which is one of the most important branches of our culture that has been brought to the present day without interruption. In our article, considerations are presented on how the innovation movements, defined by the classical illumination understanding and the modern name, can exist together without dominating each other. In particular, it has been tried to define how innovation movements and classical traditional understanding can go together.
