OZCAN UZKUR ''GENESIS''SOLO SHOW @ZORLU CENTER PSM

Gallery Ilayda Tesvikiye is pleased to present “Genesis” a solo exhibition by Özcan Uzkur between June 7th – August 3rd, 2014 at Zorlu PSM gallery venue.

In his recent exhibit “Genesis”, Özcan Uzkur, through his new works, which would be considered as a sequel to his “Shithdeath” series (2012), reveals the drama of human beings. The anonymous human bodies which are constructed by the artist and introduces the viewer to the traces of fighting each other.

In Uzkur’s works, one can prominently see fiber and blood, which come together in order to compose the body, but instantly break up. In an effort to build up over and over again from it spieces, the bodies, may well represent not only the body it self but also something beyond it: the wild nature of man, which perpetually tries to become a whole whiles hattering. The body dismantling at that very moment of union, utters thealie nation from it self, perhaps not ever being complete again.
