(May 11 – Jun 13) “Avant-Garde and Apocalypse” @ Dirimart

Dirimart will host for its first time in Turkey, Julian Rosefeld in his first solo exhibition “Avant-Garde and Apocalypse” from Friday, 11 May to Wednesday, 13 June.

From the organizer:

Dirimart is pleased to announce Julian Rosefeldt’s first solo exhibition in Turkey. For his first extensive presentation in Istanbul, Dirimart opens both galleries, in Dolapdere and Nişantaşı, to the films and photographs of Berlin-based artist Julian Rosefeldt, who has been celebrated worldwide for his film installation Manifesto (2015), a reenactment of historical avant-garde manifestos by artist groups such as the Dadaists, the Situationists, and Futurists, featuring Australian actress Cate Blanchett in thirteen different roles. In his films and photographs, Rosefeldt creates a highly aesthetic universe, with explicit formal references to the history of cinema and painting, but at the same time dealing with important social and political subjects such as totalitarianism, ecology, homeland, and migration, all treated in an ongoing playful dialogue with pop culture.

Just your average foreign student. Passionate about travelling, gender equality and getting into debates. Deluding herself constantly that she’ll learn Turkish. Trying to make “the adulting thing” work out. Always replying “you know, like the music... jazz” when asked on how to pronounce her name. Her goal in life is to be happy. Her dream is to start a NGO about the unfortunate children that don’t have access to education. Yeah, she dreams big...
