Özet:

 The aim of this article is to address the viewpoint of Turkeys local governments on sculpture and to draw attention to misapplications on the subject. In addition to the ugliness created by the gigantic symbols of local products placed in almost all our cities by municipalities in recent years, it also contradicts the natural and architectural texture of our cities. In order to show the historical process that has passed through this stage, the article begins with the importance given to the art of sculpture in the founding years of the Republic of Turkey. State facilities allocated to sculpture education and its practices since the first years of the Republic are briefly explained in the Introduction section, and then the damaged cultureart policies in the 1950s are mentioned. The problems of the stone sculpture symposiums organized by the municipalities are also mentioned, and the problem of kitsch representation objects placed in city and town squares is discussed. The measures that can be taken to solve the problem of anonymity created by the sculpture practices in our cities and some topics that can be discussed are presented as suggestions in the last section.

 Bu makalenin amacı Türkiyedeki yerel yönetimlerin heykel sanatı ile ilişkisini ele almak ve konuyla ilgili yanlış uygulamalara dikkat çekmektir. Son yıllarda hemen tüm kentlerimize belediyeler tarafından yerleştirilen yöresel ürünlerin devasa sembolleri görüntü kirliliği yaratmasının yanı sıra, kadim kentlerimizin doğal ve mimari dokusuna da ters düşmektedir. Bu aşamaya gelinirken geçilen tarihsel süreci göstermek adına makaleye, Türkiye Cumhuriyetinin kuruluş yıllarında heykel sanatına verilen önem konusuyla başlanmıştır. Cumhuriyetin ilk yıllarından itibaren heykel eğitimine ve uygulamalarına ayrılan devlet olanakları Giriş bölümünde kısaca anlatılmış, ardından 1950lerde zedelenen kültür-sanat politikalarına değinilmiştir. Belediyeler tarafından düzenlenen taş heykel sempozyumlarının zayıf yönlerinin de belirtildiği bu çalışmada, kent ve kasaba meydanlarına yerleştirilen kitsch temsiliyet nesneleri sorunu tartışılmıştır. Cumhuriyetin 100. yılında kentlerimizdeki heykel uygulamalarının yarattığı kimliksizlik probleminin çözümü için alınabilecek önlemler ve tartışılabilecek bazı konu başlıkları, son bölümde öneriler halinde sunulmuştur.
