"Mehmet Aksoy (born 1939) is a Turkish sculptor, called the "Anatolian Michelangelo". His sculptures often contain sensual figurative elements, but he is strongly rooted in a modernist sensibility with strong conceptual and abstract elements in his work. He works primarily in stone but also incorporates other material, fusing metal or differing stones in a single sculpture. He presently resides and works in a studio of his own dramatic design on the outskirts of Istanbul.[citation needed]" - (en.wikipedia.org 01.02.2020)
