He spent his childhood until high school in his hometown, in a region, where remains of the Phrygian civilization were enriched by the art of Byzantine, Seljuk and Ottoman. He was impressed by antique works of art, especially by the three-millennium old Phrygian reliefs, that inspired him for plastic arts. After finishing the high school, he enrolled as a boarding student in the Department of Arts at Gazi Institute of Education ((トルコ語:Gazi Eğitim Enstitüsü)) in Ankara, what is today the Faculty of Vocational Education at Gazi University. He was educated in arts and graduated in 1972 as a high school teacher for arts.〔 He was soon appointed in Isparta, where he made in 1973 a monument of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the foundation of the Republic. He then served as drawing teacher at a high school in Mihalıççık town in Eskişehir Province. In 1978, he was appointed as teacher for sculpture in his alma mater.〔 During his time in Ankara, he created upon request of the city administration in 1979 mockups, which later were realized in Ankara as sculptures like "''Eller''" (The Hands) in Abdi İpekçi Park,"''Nasreddin Hoca Riding the Hittite Lion Backwards''" at Railroad Station Square, "''Dayanışma''" (Solidarity) in Batıkent and "''Balerinler''" (The Ballet Dancers) in Kavaklıdere.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Metin Yurdanur」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
