Hasan Kavruk was a Turkish artist who was born in 1918. His works have been offered at international and Turkish auctions multiple times. Kavruk was one of the pioneers of the lyrical abstractionist understanding in contemporary Turkish painting and one of the followers of the Modern Figurative movement. The painter taught painting at Samsun High School in the early 1940s and was sent to Paris for painting education in 1947 by the Ministry of National Education. He worked with André Lhote (1885-1962) continuously for two years at the André Lhote Academy in Paris, while attending the Fresco workshop at the Paris Academy of Fine Arts, where he specialized in Fresco under the direction of Professor Duco De La Haille. At the same time, he continued to the Jean Lombard Workshop to learn the principles of abstract art. During his education in Paris, he met and interviewed Fernand Leger, Pablo Picasso, the famous sculptor Zatkine, Léon Gischia, Maurice Estéve, George Dayez, Marcel Burton, Belle Enfant and Bernard Buffet, and benefited from their ideas and works by maintaining constant contact with many of them. Through these contacts, he had the opportunity to exhibit his works in various art galleries in Paris. Between 1948-1949 his works were exhibited at the International, world-famous Salon D'Atomne in Paris.
