GÜNCEL SANATTA PESİMİZMİN ESTETİK BİÇİMLERİ
AESTHETIC FORMS OF PESSIMISM IN CONTEMPORARY ART

Summary/Abstract: For centuries, art has focused on humanity, defining both itself and the human through interaction with other media It has continued its evolution in the historical process as a tool to reflect the inner world, imaginary and sensory emotional states of human beings and has expressed itself in different forms in different periods. The pessimistic understanding of art depicts the existential pains, anxious feelings, the missing aspects in the search for meaning in life and the dark aspects of human nature. Visual and literary arts present these pessimistic and hopeless perspectives through an aesthetic narrative language, opening the door to both an exploration of the artist's inner world and a challenging and testing journey for the viewer. This article examines the place of pessimist art and its representatives in visual and literary arts, its aesthetic aspects, social and psychological reflections, its historical origins and questions the position of pessimist art.
