Akbank Art / Dot Line Dot
Event Date: 14 March 2025 / 9 May 2025
Point, line, point – is the reality of drawing. The tip of the pen is the point. The walking of the pen is the line. And this is an SOS. Drawing is the key to renewing the world. Each key is to open a lock. SOS, point-line-point is a call to a new world. A call to a new order, to geometry, from a world that has closed itself on itself, has settled in our memories, and is decaying.

The Bodrum Edition - Summer On The Line
Event Date: 12 Temmuz 2024
The holistic structure of The Bodrum Edition, and the exhibition space in particular, offers a unique opportunity to intertwine art, culture and entertainment, and we believe that by organizing a group exhibition in such an environment, it is possible to explore themes that resonate deeply with the environment and the mood of the viewer. For this exhibition, we tried to weave a rich texture in terms of cultural, historical, philosophical, literary and art history in the exhibition narrative by referencing William Shakespeare’s play “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”.
