Relationship with Eyüboğlu

While Gerekmezyan was a guest student at the sculpture division of Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University(formerly Fine Arts Academy, Istanbul),where she met Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu.Throughout the 1940s, Gerekmezyan assisted Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu in his artwork.The two would eventually fall in love.Their relationship is compared to the likes of Auguste Rodin and Camille Claudel.Gerekmezyan had sculpted many busts of Eyüboğlu and Eyüboğlu likewise drew many sketches of Gerekmezyan.

Eyüboğlu wrote his famous poem Karadut (Mulberry)for Mari Gerekmezyan after her death:

Turkish language:

Karadut
Karadutum, çatal karam, çingenem
Nar tanem, nur tanem, bir tanem
Ağaç isem dalımsın salkım saçak
Petek isem balımsın ağulum
Günahımsın, vebalimsin.
Dili mercan, dizi mercan, dişi mercan
Yoluna bir can koyduğum
Gökte ararken yerde bulduğum
Karadutum, çatal karam, çingenem
Daha nem olacaktın bir tanem
Gülen ayvam, ağlayan narımsın
Kadınım, kısrağım, karımsın.

English translation:
Mulberry
My black mulberry, my forked darky, my Gypsy,
My grain of pomegranate, my grain of light, my only one;
I am a tree, my limbs, a porch hanging with grapes,
I am a hive, you are my honey, my bitter honey,
My sin, my ague.
Tongue of coral, teeth of coral, thighs of oyster,
I gave you a life, my wife,
My black mulberry, my forked darky, my Gypsy,
What more will you be to me, my odd one, queer one,
My smiling quince, my weeping pomegranate,

My baby, my mare, my wife.

When he first read the poem in public, Eyüboğlu cried.It is believed that Eyüboğlu continued to love Gerekmezyan the rest of his life.The poem would become popular as it was incorporated into Cem Karaca's song Karadut.

The Getronagan Armenian High School in Istanbul hosted an exhibition for Mari Gerekmezyan in December 2012, organized by famed Armenian-Turkish photographer Ara Güler.
