Mr. Galip, a "look alike" of Albert Einstein, is a real master of pottery, living and working in Avanos town, Cappadocia, Turkey


In Avanos, a town known as the "capital" of pottery in Cappadocia, Mr. Galip (or "Chez Galip" or "Galip Usta") is the master! You can visit his workshop and see him transforming mud into beautiful (and useful) work of art. If he aproaches you holding scissors, don't be afraid. He just wants to cut a few of your hair, he is a hair collector, has also a "Hair Museum"! Is it just my idea, or this fine gentleman really looks like Albert Einstein? I guess that if i could give a title to this photo this would be: "Pottery=mc2" or "Einstein's pottery dance"!
