20th Century, Green Yellow Arizona Sunset Fantasy by Zeki Müren, ca 1970

About the Item

Arizona Sunset is the name of this unusual carpet decorated with polychrome motifs, the result of the artistic fantasy of the legendary Turkish artist Zeki Müren (Bursa 1931 -Smyrna 1996). Active in fields ranging from classical and contemporary music to poetry and acting, he specialized in Decorative Arts in Istanbul from 1950 to 1953. Zeki Müren in the '50s/'60s created for his house on the Bosphorus a series of carpets, now objects sought after by collectors, which are an expression of his whimsical fantasy, decidedly against the Turkish world of those years. His carpets are an expression of joy and life, where colour is the master in tune with decorations that are linked to more artistic experiences.

  • 20th Century Yellow Orange Green Black, Zeki Muran Leopard Turkey Rug circa 1960
    By Zeki Müren
    Located in Firenze, IT
    Iconic carpet of the production designed by Zeki Muren, singer and design highly appreciated in the 1950s as well as for his talent as an artist for his eccentric style that characterized his entire production. His style and taste influenced the production of carpets produced in the city of Sparta between 1950 and 1970, but only a few are actually designs made by Muren who often gave a name to his creations and in the weaving, he entered his signature as in the carpet that we present. The yellow, orange, green and black colouring characterize this rare specimen whose name Leopard makes a clear reference to the feline fur.
