Ekrem Yalçındağ

More about the book

In the context of the wide-ranging group exhibition HOT SPOT ISTANBUL, Museum Haus Konstruktiv is dedicating a focused solo presentation, as well as a publication to Ekrem Yalçindag. For Ekrem Yalçindag as a conceptual artist, he does not consider it absolutely necessary that the "magic hand" of the artist is involved. For him, it is much more important that a work is accurately thoughtout, and that the technique is accurately implemented - only the two of these together produce the desired result. In the last two decades, he has devised a painting technique which, for the most part, is based on a linear framework and precise engraved fields within it. Sometimes his paintings are geometrically arranged, at other times they show amorphous structures, but at all times, the technique is enormously time-consuming and calls for a calm, proficient hand. 0Exhibition: Museum Haus Konstruktiv, Zürich, Switzerland (6.6.-22.9.2013)
