#workinprogress

(Ahmet Aydın Atmaca "Retrospective" Installation with sculptures, sculpture molds and various objects on industrial metal shelves, variable sizes, 2019)

Daire will host the collective project of Ahmet Aydın Atmaca, Mehmet Öğüt and Fırat Arapoğlu

titled #workinprogress between February 16 – April 6 2019.

Ahmet Aydın Atmaca, Mehmet Öğüt and Fırat Arapoğlu are working on a project under the name of

#workinprogess, which detects the position of curators and artists in our contemporary art world.

The project addresses the formation of the artists and their backgrounds that comes from a conventional

creative field while being stuck between contemporary art world’s aesthetic codes. 

The event is not composed of pieces that appears like art works. The installations in the event, essentially,

reveals the evolution of the art object during the creative process. Apart from the question whether

pieces are art works or not, event aims to demonstrate the intricate processes behind artist’s deeds.

It brings art works, documents, audio records, images together and aims to form an archive.

In the process of forming an archive, time itself will decide whether this displaying will be

recognized as art or not – Like it always has been.

İstanbul dünyanın en kalabalık, en kaotik, en yorucu ama aynı zamanda en güzel kentlerinden biri. Günümüzde beton ve demire hapsolmuş bu kent, doğadan kopuk, mutsuz ve depresif insanların yaşadığı boğucu bir kente dönüşmüştür. İstanbul’da yaşayan ve çalışan bir sanatçı olarak, ister istemez bu durumdan ben de etkilenmekteyim. “Konstrüksiyon” adlı heykelim, kent yaşamının içinde kendi sınırlarını ve kendi varoluş olanaklarını arayan insanoğlunun bir görüntüsünü sunmaktadır. İki parçaya ayrılıp yükselen bu figür, beton ve demir malzemesiyle, kent içinde kenti saran binaların malzemesine dönüşen ve kendi kurduğu kente hapsolan insanoğlunun bir temsilidir.

Istanbul is one of the most crowded, chaotic, exhausting, but also the most beautiful cities in the world. Today, this city which is trapped in concrete and metal, has become a stifling city where people are separated from nature, living unhappy and depressed. As an artist who lives and works in Istanbul, I am inevitably been affected by this situation. The sculpture "Construction" represents an image of the human being looking for its own boundaries and possibilities of its own existence in urban life. This figure, separated into two parts and rising, is a representation of human being who is trapped in the city he built himself with concrete and iron material, turned into the material of the buildings that surround the city in the city.

Imago Mundi

227 works that give a real time snapshot of the art scene in a complex country, suspended between East and West, between Islamization and modernization, between advancement and untamed growth. Creativity, culture and art that can play an important role in enhancing an identity founded on the particularity of Turkey, a country between two worlds. Art that transcends boundaries, breaks rules and restrictions, bypasses all is, as in every Imago Mundi collection, the common thread of this collection that rightly also includes 20 works by Kurdish artists, the largest ethnic group in the country.
