Zustand: New. Every element is painstakingly hand painted and requires many coats of paint. The outlines are precisely delineated by thin brushes, no stencils or any other devises are used to keep sharp delineation of the hard-edged forms. Batu is a highly disciplined painter who observes the well-established techniques and rules of the medium - while doing so she is achieving exquisite results. She is also a keen observer of the earlier artistic traditions, such as vibrant colors and clear definition of compositional elements. The resulting synergy of various ideas, carefully selected and intelectually transformed, creates a singular synergy in Batu's art. In her words the work is about "hope and positive energy. I feel that perhaps it is my small contribution." Looking at the exuberant pieces can truly bring respite from the pressures of the everyday and renew our appreciation of imaginative and well executed painting. Editors: Translator: 20 pages.

Zustand: New. In her exhibition titled Horizon, O Zhang reminds us that the girls who are born and raised in rural China constitute one of the weaker portions within society, while asserting the belief that these girls will play major roles in the future of the country. Even though the crouching position might suggest some sort of vulnerability, it actually represents the metaphor of the "crouching tiger" in the Chinese culture, which represents the tiger that is regianing its strenght and getting ready to attack - a position that is actually intimidating. The artist identifies with these girls, while referring to the switly shifting equilibria. The horizon line that advances throughout the photographs alludes to the upcoming rise that is depicted in the pictures. Editors: Translator: 48 pages.

Zustand: New. Dirimart Nisantasi is deligthted to announce Özcan Kaplan's solo exhibition titled Chats with Mouth Shut In this exhibition to be opened in Turkey after 3 years, Kaplan displays a selection of his paintings he has been producing since 2013. While focusing on the illusions between the visible and the known, Chats with Mouth Shut highlights the stratification processes and time lapses in the artists oeuvres. The depth of Kaplan's works is correlated with the phases of the production process. It is possible to see countless layers on the canvas, where restarting with the quest to find the unexperimented, self-questioning and coincidences meet with colors. The search for freedom, thrusted by lines, color successions and brush strokes, ends at a point when nothing else can be added or changed anymore. Kaplan, who lays his life process on the core of his artistic practices, completely alters the timeline perceived by the viewer. According to the artist, his works "focus on the act of painting itself. They can be defined in terms of timing and some sort of a stratification. This way, the paintings turn into a symbol of a meta-reality. At the basis of this lays existence and being a human. Producing art is a way of seduction, after all". Editors: Translator: 80 pages.

Zustand: New. The bilingual catalogue features a comprehensive text by James Bridle presenting a wide context for Page's art delving into roots of modernism and minimalist art and Renaissance perspective, flickering between the fifteenth and the twentieth centuries. The text is accompanied by Nazli Erdemirel's photographs of works and installation views. Fading Light in the Picture Galleryis a layered meditation upon painting, images, and artifice. Page's illusionistic paintings are not faithful representations of objects from life. They are paintings that represent phenomena implicitly, representations of representationsthe sheen in Page's mirrors is more like a Photoshop effect than any actual reflective surface; the shadows are composed by the artist with the aid of a computer, not observed from the light in his studio. Hence, his work reflects on the mediation of our experience, how the world today feels at one remove from us. How might we locate ourselves in a world that feels so intangible, so unreal? And if we cannot dispense entirely with illusions, how at least might we dream up better ones? With the world beyond our facades becoming ever more tumultuous, the question is a burning one.

Zustand: New. The bilingual catalogue features a comprehensive inspirational text by Matt Hanson, a product of in-depth conversations at the artist's studio, contemplating not only on the exhibited works but also establishing connections with the artist's entire oeuvre. The text is accompanied by Nazli Erdemirel's photographs of works and installation views. The spontaneous forms in Seckin Pirim's works produced in neo-minimalist style through numerous different materials represent the artist's social connections and his journey to re-meet himself and become his own self. Drawing his inspiration and production style from Rumi's conception of "from one to whole," the issues and experiences that Pirim occupies himself with as the source of his art constitute the representation of spiritual-physical purification and introspection in his latest works. Pirim is seeking answers to questions of renewal and transformation through repeating forms that force their own limits in the face of present-day chaotic and heterogenous modes of existence.

Zustand: New. The bilingual catalogue features inspirational texts by Jesi Khadivi and Canan Erbil that capture the sense and rhythm of Voigt's unique work, together with work and installation views. The presentation includes Voigt's latest series Rhythm (2022), alongside works from the series The Sum of All Best Practices (2021/22), Fugue (2021), Immersion (2020), Infinite (2020), and Double Infinite (2019). Voigt's intuitive and expressive works evolve from rigorous meditative and observational processes that seek to capture the complexity and velocity of her environment, whether through existing natural forms as in The Sum of All Best Practices (2021/22) or through the abstract configurations of her latest series Rhythm. In her Rhythm works, which form the core of her exhibition at Dirimart, Voigt creates lines in three dimensions: slicing, cutting, repositioning, and layering colored paper and existing drawn lines into new configurations. While some compositions appear textured and graphic, others take on delicate shapes that subtly evoke landscapes, blossoms, or elaborate ribbons. The Sum of All Best Practices and Fugue further illustrate Voigt's current investigations of the space-making qualities of drawing in three-dimensions. These works consider how every form of the present speaks of its own pastand of its survival. Here Voigt creates cutouts of individual leaves found in Berlin parks and brings them together to form topographic assemblages that explore the potentially infinite ways in which a single specific thing can be embedded into a specific complexity. And Immersion takes as its starting point the process of perception itself. Editors: Translator: 104 pages.

Zustand: New. Dirimart is pleased to host Karin Kneffel's solo exhibition titled Haymatlos. Following her inaugural show in Istanbul in 2013, Haymatlos presents works that generate a dialogue between Germany and Turkey through the concept of "heimatlos": statelessness. Kneffel's paintings pry about the past to reveal how remembering penetrates its foreignness by transforming it, leaving peculiar traces or by adding and removing elements from it. Kneffel's curious look delivers the illusion of living spaces that actually consist of latent, uncanny absences. Through the use of overlapping intricate details from past and present of the artist's archive of found and taken photographs, a closed-circuit world with elements interconnected appear. Seemingly realistic, the paintings obey no photographic logic of perspective and space but are constructed with deliberately added layers of illusory details. The viewers are warned not to believe in what they see in the paintings. The things you see may mislead you. The paintings may tell lies; whilst they seem like they are constructing narratives with an obsessive commitment to details, they become unreliable narrators. This is a reminiscent of Mimesis.

Ackermann, known for his passionate paintings and installations dealing with themes of travel, tourism, globalization, and urban life, is bringing together landscapes from cities that he spent extensive periods of time during the last three years at Dirimart Dolapdere, The artist transforms these cities, ranging from Miami to Istanbul to Mumbai, by analyzing the dramatic changes they undergo and translating his mental experiences of them into small-scale watercolors, large-scale oil paintings, and vast murals by thus becoming part of urban textures, he opens up areas to construct new spaces for himself. Ackermann describes this new space that is surrounded by images void of people as public space, inviting viewers in to complement the cities he painted to become a fundamental element of the exhibition and to reiterate the strong connection between the gallery space and the outside. Franz Ackermann began his first long-term series, Mental Maps in 1991 during a trip to Hong Kong. The watercolors in the exhibition are a part of Ackermann's first long term and ongoing series, Mental Maps which emerged. The artist combined the sensibility of traditional street maps to directly reflect reality with his interpretation of the region, seemingly documenting his perceptions of important cities in Asia, South America, and Australia. Later on, Ackermann designed large-scale, dynamic installations including paintings, drawings, photographs, wall drawings, sculptures, and bulletin boards, constructed through bringing together separate, individual elements. With his works, he aims to reveal the two facades of tourism; on the one hand is the appeal of the rapid, international travel consumption culture, while on the other hand is the cultural degradation, architectural marks left behind. His installations often appear to resemble the strange advertisements designed for the cultural tourism industry. While the spaces that he describes do not appear unique, they are also extremely familiarnon-existent spaces in which the traveling tourist's desire replaces the local culture.

Zustand: New. Dirimart is preparing to host Topsy-Turvy! Selpakla Gorili Bitirdim! exhibition of Güclü Öztekin. His latest works on craft paper will meet the audience at the artist's first exhibition at Dirimart Dolapdere. A comprehensive artist book covering Öztekin's production since 2009 accompanies the exhibition. Güclü Öztekin uses found objects as raw material and describes his paintings as a kind of recycling. He refuses stereotypes; instead of explaining his production process, it's enough for him to say they are plain and simple. His artistic practice can be seen as a realm where division between art and life disappears, a practice as an extension of daily life, beyond descriptions. "I do not work to paint, I do work to make the space work. The space creates the painting," he says. According to him, his paintings are very clear, simple, corporal, and ordinary.

Zustand: New. This book, standing out with its focus on works of an artist in the context of a single city, is structured as two parts. In the first part, Ileri follows the traces of autobiographic elements in Sarkis' works by contemplating on communication channels which the artist, consciously or intuitively, establishes in various areas such as literature, philosophy, and music. Sources of Sarkis' oevre foster with Sarkis' interpretations. Apparently, he fearlessly reaches forth his hand into all these 'twinkles' and indiscriminately touches them, with the curiosity of a child: either Paradjanov, Tarkovsky, Sevim Burak, or Aliye Berger, or John Cage, Edvard Munch, or the big master of music Johann Sebastian Bach, or an ordinary encounter that momentarily breaks off from the flux of daily life and involved in the perception universe of Sarkis. The second part presents an inventory of Sarkis' works and exhibitions created and realised here, in Istanbul, his city of birth and youth, since 1960 until now. In the section giving a chronological list of exhibitions, we see that Sarkis held a couple of solo exhibitions and participated in some group shows in Istanbul, before he moved to Paris in 1964. His real hit takes place in 1986 with the Caylak Street exhibition held at the Macka Art Gallery. We observe that, after this turning point of Turkey's art milieu, this 'event' that is considered to be a milestone, Sarkis helds exhibitions in Istanbul more frequently, participates in more activities, is at the centre of debates, and continues his artistic struggle uncompromisingly, until today.

Zustand: New. This artist's book comprises selected drawings by Inci Eviner and the poetic texts she wrote in Büyükada, Istanbul, in 20232024, in a reflexive conversation with each drawing. Known for her work across various mediums such as drawing, video, performance, sculpture, and installation, Eviner, with this book, invites readers to explore her creative universe through her drawings and the accompanying texts that she crafted as if conversing with them. Published in two separate language editions, Turkish and English, the book is enriched by Eviner's design concept and Ruslan Abasov's design. Lying at the centre of Inci Eviner's creative practice, drawing, for the artist, serves both as a means of expressing the unconscious and a tool for exploring her concepts. It is a space where the interplay between the conscious and unconscious can unfold, revealing the complex entanglement between the societal and the psychic. It also serves as the foundation upon which she discovers and develops new ideas, forms, and spatial constructs. Rooted in this foundation and continuously evolving with a boundless visual language, her work questions and challenges the forms of social, historical, and discursive representations and the underlying norms behind them. In Behind It Something Intimate, Eviner engages in a dialogue with her drawings and expands the multi-layered world that shapes them in a textual space that she shares with the readers.

Zustand: New. 16,5x24 cm. Undone is a compelling exploration of the unrealised projects of Ayse Erkmen, offering unique insight into the conceptual processes and imaginative breadth behind works that never reached physical completion. Rather than focusing solely on finished installations, the monograph gives voice to ideas halted by logistical, political, or spatial limitations ideas that retain their force in conceptual form. In stark contrast to her directly commissioned public works, the fifty-three projects included in this volume were often based on competitions to which Erkmen was invited. Yet these unrealised works, far from being mere fragments or oversights, are brought to life through her own sketches, renderings, and concise descriptions, revealing their conceptual rigour and expansive imagination. Edited by Ayse Orhun Gültekin, the monograph also features two insightful texts by Friedrich Meschede and Cem Ileri, which deepen the discussion of Erkmen's artistic strategy, the broader contexts of public art, and the question of realisation in contemporary practice as a complex, multifaceted process. Rather than valuing art solely by its physical manifestation, Undone challenges conventional definitions of success, presenting Erkmen as a thoughtful practitioner who engages with space, society, form, and materials on her own terms. The publication foregrounds the importance of intention, context, and potential portraying Erkmen not only as a sculptor or installation artist, but as a thinker deeply invested in place, public space, and the poetics of what might have been. Instead of treating unrealised ideas as absences, Undone presents them as rich sites of meaning testimonies to art's ability to unsettle, reimagine, and 'loosen the seams of reality', as Fulya Erdemci once said. This volume was compiled in memory of Erdemci (19622022), a key advocate for art in public spaces. Editors: Translator: 296 pages.
