Artists

Antonio Cosentino

Antonio Cosentino

In Antonio Cosentino’s works, one finds a wealth of images distilled from everyday life, the depths of personal, memory, and the visual culture of the artist’s city. While the shifting character of highbrow and low-brow art was being discussed in the 90’s contemporary art milieus, Cosentino and his artist friends undertook, as it were, the archaeology of a gaze which brought subculture into question. It is from this period on that Cosentino’s painting incorporated materials from the visual culture of our geography without letting one dominate the others: panels, signboards, wrappings and ceramic tiles.

Irmak Dönmez

Irmak Dönmez

Lacan’s words “I see only from one point, but in my existence I am looked at from all sides” are behind Irmak Dönmez’s take on how the dominated female body loses itself-being and is compelled to assume new meanings, which leads to a visual reimagining of the body with a naive eye, guided by phenomenological questions. In doing so, the artist nearly operates on the body, cutting it into pieces and studying them semantically. Her chief concerns are the values of sanctity, motherhood, enclosing, harnessing, and nurturing attributed to the female body.

Burak Ata - Gündüz Gündüz
