Turkish Islamic art of Marbling (Ebru)

[heytherelisa]

what kind of paints are used for marbling? 

[Yveskonya]

Hicabi Gülgen, who is the artist in this video, has created a group on facebook named "The art of Ebru".

[gta4freakk4]

Amazing. It brought back such beautiful, creative memories of Turkey.

[oritlight]

FANTASTIC!!!

[simonetr81]

Büyülendim...

Muhteşem. Tek kelimeyle muhteşem.

Belki de icratı en zor sanatlardan biridir Ebru sanatı... ama yapılırken izlemesi müthiş bir keyif.

[ApertngA]

ilginç harbiden

[AlefHely]

The best I have ever seen in Art, so peaceful and calming, what a dexterity! Thank you for sharing this video, I really enjoyed it along with the music.

[yotuber08]

verry verry Nice WOOhoWW!!!

[SalamLT]

Yes, really beautiful :)

[monsoonbreezes]

muhteşem (magnificent)!!!!

[peachick7]

Very beatiful technique.

[pseudoturk]

wow,this is really beautiful

[baipass]

why do u always argue... even when there is such a beautiful vid here, relaxing music .. and u still find reasons to curse and offend each other. U are all disgusting .. !!!!!!! !!!!!PEACE!!!!!

[felizuco]

[Applause]

[Levahn]

Practice what you preach bro, such a beautiful video and u find reasons for anger.

[hayyalife]

This ia a lovely video. Just beautiful.

[QIRIM]

mashallah !!!

[TrustInIslam]

I would LOVE to learn Turkish, sounds real cool. WOW! That is a sick form of art!

[n2oforce]

thats really cool. I am turkish and all my friends in us want to learn it. It is not really hard to learn.

[TrustInIslam]

The Ottoman Empire contributed tons to what Turkey is today. I believe Islam should be brought back to Turkey.

[sharmanti]

haha :) must be pretty annoying to paint like this, its like having one chance and thats it, cool form of art

[DebbyDeb]

@sharmanti: You would think that, but not really. I work in a museum & occasionally do marbling as a drop-in craft for kids & often adults. I think the nature of color floating on liquid makes it hard to mess up. There is such beauty in the nature of it. Obviously, no one is making anything near what you see in this video, but unless one gets in & stirs the heck out of the paint like they're mixing cake batter, it turns out and pulling the paper is like watching fireworks--oohs & ahhs!

[oficerski]

great art performance, 5* from me

[pheonixphire]

is there a special paint fo this. i love watching you paint. its so peaceful.

[sejfeddinsesli]

harikasın ..ellerin dert görmesin ..Bizim sanatımızı bu kadar güzel anlatan bir klip yapılamazdı..

[hebidibello]

Türk Islam sanati vardi ve halen var olmus idi,bak hele camilere.Sirf Istanbul daki camilere degil,bak orta asyadaki Turkistan bölgelerine orada nice Türk Islam sanati göreceksin...Biz savasda bile sanatsal insanlariz.Bak hele Topkapi sarayina Bizler Peygambere efendimize(s.a.v.)nasil sahiblen- misiziniz ALLAH (C.C.)Habibisine(s.a.v.). Türbelere bak bakalim ne bicim yipranmis haldeler Arab ülkelerinde....

[11Prim11]

Fantastic..thanks for the vid bud..

[scarsxbloodxlies]

my grandpa did this back in pakistan, its realy cool and he taught me a bit about it

[virus0090]

wow realy wonderful

[talep555]

WoW! SIMPLY AMAZING

[spadart]

5 stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Magnum3579]

where can i learn this better ?

[osmantan1]

I think most of the masters of this art do this with music.. because they need to go throught their heartfor an artistic work

[TUwiener]

harika ...

müzik de cok güzel olmus. eline saglik hazirlayan, yapan.

bende bir ara ugrasmistim, müthis zevkli bir sanat.

[hakanyildizfener]

This is really beautiful.

I think this must be more recognised in world because this really is wonderful.

[wiloka28]

Mashallah! Wow! That was wonderful. Beautiful work.

[lunaris19]

This looks similar to the designs baristas (coffee shop employees i.e. Starbucks) create with cream in their coffee.

[voiceofreasoning]

Wonderful piece of work.

[Peace1seeker]

masha'Allah! beautiful, beautiful

Thank you for sharing!

[hajghaith]

Wow! it is so pretty and breathtaking wow.

I loved this form of Art, Oh that's

beautiful! Looking forward to more of it thankyou so much it's so lovely :)

[benhadod]

WONDERFUL

[TheLionsEyes]

Beautiful

[SNkaraoglu]

it's fascinating,

And it's not simple as much as it seems..

[miracarse]

very beautifull turkish marbling

[TheOnlyMissSTYLISH]

that is really cool. its quite interesting to watch you do it, it seems simple after you show how to do it, it has intrigued an interest for me

thanks

[RCandHerps]

oh i got to do this in school. its really fun and suprisingly easy

[hilltop530]

five stars...

Amazingly relaxing. Great Job..

[Aaron3636]

agreed it is really relaxing!

[estreiacorea]

oh breath taking

I have intution that eh artist is a guy, right?

[volkanozada]

ebru sanatı ..... türkiyeeeeee

[art4dstressing]

watching the process is extremely relaxing

[mokhtarnia]

you are right :) i'm watching it after a hard day at job :)

[cucukokolale]

Hayat kaynağı suyun bize yansıttıkları bu sanatla belli oluyor...

[oceansheart23]

Very amazing!

[ebrush83]

süperrrr

[chiasa88]

very cool. love the music.

[illusionkid54]

Ya, I did this in school on a smaller scale. Once you are done, you can also put think paper and lay it down on the LS. Then you press points, and then lift it up.

[sellingartonline]

great technique

[whatevaaah]

Why would you want to compare in the first place. Every sort of art has it's own appeal. With this form of art I believe the most important thing is not the result but the process of making it.

[JudoMasterKano]

wat did they use to make this peice of islamic art???

its too good i have to have a go!!!

[12081985]

in the ottoman empire it used in rooms, because a humanly, animal looking painting are not allowed in islam so this peace full art is used on the rooms^^

[Smile85000]

WOW i really love this video.

Is there anywhere on the web I can download it from? Or would it be possible for you to send it to me via email?

[toastee4]

Hi - im an art teacher and i like to do this with my students - they love it and so do I-

You need to go to the supermarket and buy two jugs of liquid starch.

pour the LS into a basin

then select a variety of tempra paints - put a few colors into diffrent cups and add a drop of liquid soap to each cup. mix the paint and then drip it into the liquid starch.

the color will sit ontop of the water. pull colors with tooth picks. lay paper ontop of the LS and then pull paper up. enjoy

[Smile85000]

Hi, wow I cant wait to try this, Thank You :)

[qasim64]

hey thanks im gonna try this

[kuzey28]

terapi gibi ya..ruhum dinlendi

[adilbro]

Beautiful, and what a contrast with life...

the people who deny God exists are jut like those who say we cannot see a face behind the hand here, so we believe this piece of art came about by chance, it was random...No there is a designer here just as there is for the Universe.

[ShiaMuslimGirl]

thats so nice!

[ezsarah]

this is soo amazing

[mehditalib]

realy nice thnxs for sending!

[tayl2b]

wunderschön unglaublich schön ne kadar güzel birsey ya bunlar beautiful

[sinankosak]

this is great! The beauty and peace in "true" islam is reflected on this piece of art. Thanks for sharing.

[jay12632com]

beautiful

[todoporlapaz]

great job

[xOTTOxxx]

are you blind?And stop hate us!

[GentleGiantAmI]

I agree. You are a peaceful follower of Islam! To be humbled is great, but is it so bad for him to be proud as well. For it is a great accomplishment. Wonderful, beautiful. This is a great gift to all the world. Well done thou good and faithful servant!

[TheSublimeArt]

maghi the Islamist -> make no mistake Turkish people are artistically active unlike the by Wahhabism-indoctrinated & Arabized peoples! As you watch this video YOU should be humbled and take some clue from the Turks instead of demonstrating your miserable jealousy and remove your obscurantist Wahhabi videos from your filthy page!

[maghi85]

roflcakes...

I am anything but Wahhabi... everything Arabic doesn't mean Wahhabi... infact those videos you see are videos of Sufi sages...

Ottomons had their glory because of their connection with God... i'm not Jealous of Ottomons infact I love them... I just complain of modern day Turks who are anything BUT Ottomons in their lifestyle and their uprightness

[maghi85]

art is not beautiful if it's meaningless... Ottomon art was meaningful... If some superficial person copies the same thing it doesn't have the same beauty anymore cuz it doesn't mean the same thing

[GentleGiantAmI]

I love this video. It reminds me of a painting in the science fiction book series of Dune. The painting was a masterpiece, but they had used science so you could watch the painter create the master piece at a push of a button.

This is just like the painting, and a brand new form of art -- at least it is new to me. Bravo!!!

[NeBuLouSs]

yahu şu videoyu izzleyip müziği duyan bir insan nasıl olur da aklına kürttür lazdır kıbrıs'tır vb. getirir. bunun altına küfür etmeyin bari. şu güzelliğe bakın ve kötü düşünceleri ve kini şöyle bir 9 dakika 23 saniye beyninizden silin lütfen

[maghi85]

beautiful

[ebugatta]

how can you all keep arguing, at a this peaceful vid?

[sera0001]

thats really nice :) i would like to learn that too. :)

[orkide1234]

[cryingangel88]

[ekstc]

[narkozz]

why is everyone posting on turkish culture and greatness like this one and others :S:S i cant understand why you are so jealous about?

[ebugatta]

Amazing vid. May I ask for the title of the music?

[azuran84]

watch?v=Xn0lCdx-3Qo

there u go.

i just forgot the name and land but i guess thats what he meant.

[qualqui]

What a beautiful and mesmerizing art this is!!! Ebru(cloud), i was totally glued to the screen watching the simplicity yet the painstaking way that the art was turned into different forms, at the end that flower plant looked so unique! Thanx for sharin' this most awesome vid with me! Saludos desde Kerétaro, México!

[PapiIIon]

Amazing isn't it?

Ney and Ebru are our divine arts.

I love my culture, i love Mevlana, Yunus Emre, Haci Bektas Veli and Ataturk.

Thanks for video!

[nazozgun]

I remember seing how this done first hand in a Canadian-Turkish festival called Tulip festival.

I success everyone to actualy watch artist doing the work with your own eyes, its beutifull

[Jordie0069]

AMAZING !!

[icrayilubiyyat]

islamla ilgisi nedir biliyor musun?

islamda suret çizmenin yeri yoktur. bu yüzden müslüman sanatkarlar daha çok soyut çalışmalara yönelmişlerdir. batıda heykeltraşlık ressamlık gelişirken bizde neden ebru sanatı gibi soyut sanatlar var düşünürsek anlarız.

[sweet1453]

bu cahillere ne anlattığını sanıyosunki

islamı yok saymak için ellerinden geleni yaparlar

[icrayilubiyyat]

anladım ben. sağol

[TheSubstituteChoice]

Ebru sanatinin kökeni Çin'dedir.

[icrayilubiyyat]

kökeni hakkında konuşmadık, islamiyetle ilgisinden bahsediyordum. bilgi için teşekkür ederim tabiki

[icrayilubiyyat]

kökeni hakkındaki bilgilere bakılırsa 9. yüzyılda çinde başladığı söyleniyor, fakat o dönemde türkistanda da yapılıyordu. ve ebrunun geliştirilmesi osmanlıda olmuştur. başlıbaşına bir iş kolu haline gelmiştir ebruculuk. ayrıca osmanlı çok büyük ebru ustaları yetiştirmiş, batı ebruyu osmanlı vasıtasıyla tanımıştır. o bakımdan türk islam sanatı denmesinde bir sakınca olmaması gerek.

[TheSubstituteChoice]

Tabii ki Osmanlilar bu sanata kendi yorumlarini kattilar. Tipki gölge oyunlarinda b(Karagöz) oldugu gibi. Gölge oyununun kökeni de Cin'de. Ama Karagöz ile Cin'deki gölge oyunu birbirinin aynisi degil.

[icrayilubiyyat]

her neyse bu konu beni çok ilgilendirmez. önemli olan bu sanatların bana ne kattığı ne hissettirdiğidir. ilk kim bulmuş bu kayıtlara bakılarak söylenebilen bir şeydir. unutmamalı ki türkler o zamanlar göçebe bir hayat yaşıyordu. kayıt sistemi çok fazla gelişmemişti. tarihin nasıl oluştuğunu da gözönüne almak lazım. benim çin veya türk takıntım yok. dediğim gibi önemli olan hissettiklerimizdir.

[icrayilubiyyat]

ben köklerimle atalarımla gurur duyarım doğru ya da yanlış işler yapabilirler tabiki. illa osmanlı yaptı diye bir takıntımızın olması osmanlıyı küçültmekten başka işe yaramaz. onların torunlarına yakışmaz. saygılar.

[icrayilubiyyat]

ebru yapmayı ben de denemiştim, cidden çok rahatlatıcı. kendini ifede edebilirsin, ruh halini dökebilirsin suyun üzerine. evet suya yazı yazılır mı diye sorarlar. ebru böyle birşey.

[skhan002]

beautiful.. i wanna learn to do that :)

[laryssa112]

superb!

[kingoguzhan]

simply beautiful

[mltbkr]

This is the best video above all.

[magicianerdal]

Süper.

[darkh0rse27]

cok guzel!

[ebruturk]

batman7003 güzel klibi bizlerle paylaştığın için ayrıca teşekkür ederim. Gerçek ve kaliteli ebru fiyat olarak ne kadardır ve nereden satın alabilirim. Bilen var mı acaba?

[ebruturk]

Ebru sanatı orta asyadan Türkistandan anadoluya gelmiş. Türkler orta asyadayken henüz müslümanlığı bilmiyorlardı ki. Benim için islami olup olmadığı önemli değil ama doğruları bilmek önemli. Türkler getirene kadar anadoluda lale de yokmuş. Lale soğanlarını anadoluya getirenler de türkler. Lale daha orta asyadayken türkler için çok önemliydi.

[ebruturk]

Lale Tüeklerin orta asyadan Anadoluya getirdikleri kumaşlarına motiflerini işledikleri geleneksel çiçekeleri. Türkler her gittikleri yere lale soğanlarını da taşımış. Türkler için lale bereketin bolluğun simgesi olmuş. Lale motifini ebru sanatında da kullanmışlar.Daha ayrıntılı bilgi için ebrusanati dot com sitesine bakın.

[msnturka]

ya önemli olan bu sanatın osmanlı ya ait olması yada olmaması önemli değil,önemli olan ne kadar koruyabiliyoruz,bu güzel sanat için devlet kılını bile kıpırdatmamış ama onlara sorarsan en bi osmanlı onlardır..bırakalım bunları elin gavuruda özenip kahveyle sütü karıştırıp bişeyler yapmaya çalışmış:) izleyin

watch?v=jgg0GIfbszg

[batman7003]

Biraz daha acabilir misiniz? Bir cicek resmedilirken neden acaba Lale secilmis ya da cogu zaman Gul. Islam kulturunde Lale Allah'i, Gul Hz. Muhammed'i remz etmez mi?

[darkfriairs]

Ebru ilk zaanlarda figür barındırmadan sadece suyun üzerine atılan boyalar ile oluşturlmuş. Fakat zaman geçtikçe figürler eklenmiş, şimdilerde ise sadece lale değil, bri çok çiçek çeşidinin yanında kuş, at gibi hayvan figürleri ve tabii insan figürleri de mevcut.

[mavigozlucennetbekci]

this is real art... This is Ottoman....

[pakuma2]

Wow!!!!, I have never seen such beautiful art. Is that paint or what, when it dries it looks like a painting.

Amazing..

[hseta]

Çok zahmetli ama çok güzel.

Harika bir sanat.

[mihmat]

helal olsun..... türkün gücü :D

[nuu69]

[reimas1424]

thank you batman7003.. it's a good explanation to aryopa.. well, at the end it shows peacefull art:)

[brunita007]

What a beautiful video.Que vídeo lindo!!!ツ

[xanek79]

it's wonderfull. its a enthrallingi art. i lover its.

[sinisibilli]

it's just amazing.... does someone know how the song is called??

[hilary3489]

Fabulous can't wait to try this!

[aryopa]

can someone explain what has that to do with islam?

[batman7003]

@aryopa

You might wanna read the fairly long "About This Video"... Most of the arts that came out of east (not only the muslim east) aim at one thing: To reflect the beauty of the Divine. That's only one of the reasons why Ebru is ultimately an islamic art.

You can also take into account the fact that most prominent symbol in ebru is the "tulip" which symbolizes (Remz) GOD in the Islamic culture.

[aryopa]

It's beautiful but it isn't islamic. It's just modern art, modern Turkish art. "To reflect the beauty of divine" is not a monopol of islam. Art IS about reflecting of divine or do you call Bethoven's music and Le Corbousier's architecture "Christian" art? Turkish art is Turkish art, Persian art is persian art and Indian Art is Indian Art.

[batman7003]

I am not here to start an intellectual debate over what constitutes Islamic Art or Art itself for that matter. However, I have to clear something up and that is there is nothing "modern" about Ebru. It is a traditional form of art and that in of itself contradicts with your statement. My best recommendation to you is to read some of Ananda K. Coomaraswamy's writings on traditional forms of art and what they truly represent. You will certainly feel enlightened on the subject matter.

[batman7003]

I agree, however, that Islam does not have a monopol over reflecting the beauty of the Divine. A Buddha image or Da Vinci's The Last Supper will do just fine for some people.

[eule1907]

elinize yüreginize saglik...

kamera cekimleri icin ayrica tesekkür ederiz..
