- Title
ISTANBUL: HALE TENGER and MÜRÜVVET TÜRKYILMAZ.
- Authors
Root, Deborah
- Abstract
The article focuses on Turkish artists Hale Tenger and Mürüvvet Türkyilmaz, both from Izmir, Turkey. It notes that Tenger's works project the completed narrative of the evolution of Turkey as a nation from Islamic to a secular state and genealogy of style, whose famous works include Never, Never Land, Strange Fruit, and Portrait of a Woman. It notes that Türkyilmaz's installations are site-specific but complex personal meditations of people across space and time such as The Face of Placement in 1997, Point of View in 2000, and Fence in 2003.
