SALT ve Van Abbemuseum işbirliğinde gerçekleştirilen İstanbul Eindhoven-SALTVanAbbe projesinin ilk sergisi İstanbul Eindhoven-SALTVanAbbe: 89’dan Sonra 27 Ocak’ta açılıyor. SALT Beyoğlu ve SALT Galata’da yer alan sergi, Van Abbemuseum koleksiyonundan 1989 sonrası üretilmiş işleri içeriyor.

SALT, Van Abbemuseum ekibiyle birlikte, uluslararası platformda iyi bilinen ancak İstanbul’da yeterince tanınmayan ya da işleri hiç gösterilmemiş 15 sanatçının 40’tan fazla işini seçti. Bu işlerin ilham verici önemi ile ilk elden deneyimlenmesi gerektiğine duyulan inancın yanı sıra bu seçki, döneme dair sanatsal pratiklerin incelediği birtakım kilit temalar etrafında şekilleniyor. Bunlar, Marlene Dumas’nın Models [Modeller] adlı resimlerinden oluşan enstalasyon ile Rineke Dijkstra’nın fotoğraflarını da içeren “portreleme”; Allen Ruppersberg’ün, Allen Ginsberg’ün ünlü şiiri Uluma’ya ithafen yaptığı işin başrolü üstlendiği “edebiyat ve metin”; Douglas Gordon ve Rodney Graham’ın pratiği ve işleri üzerinden “film” ve Stanley Brouwn’un kavramsal olarak derinlemesine ele aldığı “zaman ve mekân” gibi temaları kapsıyor. Türkiye’den sanatçılardan seçilen işler, benzer fikir ve yaklaşımlarla görsel ve kavramsal diyaloğa girmeleri için bu tematik bölümlere yerleştirildi. Bunlar arasında Leyla Gediz’in portrelemeye farklı bir yaklaşım öneren işleri, Cevdet Erek’in ritim ve ölçü üzerine çalışmaları, Özlem Günyol & Mustafa Kunt’un coğrafi pozisyon ve çeviri ile oynayan oyunları ile İnci Eviner’in film setine benzeyen alışılmadık panoramaları yer alıyor.

İstanbul Eindhoven-SALTVanAbbe, a collaborative project between SALT and Van Abbemuseum, will evolve over the course of three exhibitions presented across both SALT venues throughout 2012. The first exhibition, İstanbul Eindhoven-SALTVanAbbe: Post ’89, opens on January 27 and presents art works loaned from the Van Abbemuseum collection that were produced after the year 1989.

In collaboration with the team at Van Abbemuseum, SALT has selected over forty individual works by fifteen international artists who have either never shown in İstanbul or have been rarely exhibited despite their notoriety. In addition to believing that these particular works are of inspirational importance and hence should be seen first-hand, the selection also revolves around several key themes explored within artistic practices of this period. These include ‘portraiture’ with photographs by Rineke Dijkstra and an installation of paintings titled Models by Marlene Dumas, ‘literature and text’ for which Allen Ruppersberg’s homage to Allen Ginsberg’s poem Howl takes center stage, ‘film’ as referenced throughout the practices and works of Douglas Gordon and Rodney Graham among others, and ‘time and space’ conceptually explored most intimately by Stanley Brouwn. Works by local artists that relate to these loose thematic sections are positioned to encourage visual and conceptual conversations between similar ideas and approaches. These include paintings by Leyla Gediz that afford an alternative appreciation for portraiture, Cevdet Erek’s studies of rhythm and measure, Özlem Günyol & Mustafa Kunt’s plays on translation and geographical positioning and İnci Eviner’s quirky film-set-like panoramas that read along one horizon line.
