Work the Room feat."Kan Değil Süt"

"work the room" starts in istanbul
Work the Room is an open end process project where the roles of the determining factors of contemporary art production -artist, audience, space and curator- become subject to change, to be played on and to be problematized. Upon the invitation from the curator Övül Durmuşoğlu, Muruvvet Turkyilmaz (Istanbul) and Marijn van Kreij (Amsterdam) come together in GON comic book store -on Yeni Çarşı Street descending from Galatasaray Square- to work together with the shop's living and working conditions. The two artists working on inscription and writing as a personal and collective performance territory will investigate the circumstances of producing together with the curator, the audience and the space during Work the Room. And Övül Durmuşoğlu will break in the flux of ongoing production through not only putting different obstructions, objects and comments but also inviting surprise guests.

The production of contemporary art projects generally focus on the result. During Work the Room process -which will develop in the area where viewing and producing cross each other- the activities of the artists and the curator will be recorded. The records updated on http:// worktheroomproject.blogspot.com will be transformed into a publication afterwards.

The first participant invited by Durmusoglu to intervene in the project is the curator Adnan Yıldız (Berlin/Istanbul). Yıldız will be reading the fairytale of Keloğlan through the approach of oral history leaking into the everyday politics, accompanied by turkish breakfast at 10:30 on 4th September.

The Language Habitat: an Ecopoetry Manifesto

The Language Habitat: an Ecopoetry Manifesto By James Engelhardt Ecopoetry is connection. It’s a way to engage the world by and through language. This poetry might be wary of language, but at its core believes that language is an evolved ability that comes from our bodies, that is close to the core of who we are in the world. Ecopoetry might borrow strategies and approaches from postmodernism and its off-shoots, depending on the poet and their interests, but the ecopoetic space is not a postmodern space. An ecopoem might play with slippages, but the play will lead to further connections. Ecopoetry does share a space with science. One of the concerns of ecopoetry is non-human nature (it shares this concern with the critical apparatus it borrows from, ecocriticism). It certainly shares that concern with most of the world’s history of poetry: How can we connect with non-human nature that seems so much more, so much larger than ourselves? How can we understand it? One way

Satın Alınamayan Ortak Kader “Yeni Normal”

Yeni normal.Şu günlerde oldukça duyduğumuz bu kavram tuhaf ve ıssız olan bir uzamda huzursuzluğun kaygıya doğru birleşme yarattığı noktada var olmakta.İçimizde bulunduğumuz gerçeklik şimdilerde böyle tarif ediliyor.Acaba gerçekten böyle mi? Yeni ve normal mi?Yeni olan gerçeklik acaba normalleştirici mi? Bugünlerde çoğu insan nasıl normalleşeceğimiz konusunda tartışıyor, kakafonik tarzda bu tartışmalar hiçbir şeyin eskisi gibi olmayacağını ifade eden gürültülü haber bültenlerine yakın benzerlikte yorumlarla beraber buharlaşıyor.Aslında anlamların, kavramların,temsillerin ağına yakalanan vahşi anlamsız bedenler olduğumuz gerçeği (Erasmusvari tabiriyle bir “homo bulla”)ile karşı karşıyayız.Bunun yanı sıra insan hayatında korku ve izalosyonun tam ortasındayken derin ve olumlu bir değişim olabileceği inancıyla uyanıyoruz.Kapitalizmin rasyonalitesi ve şiddetli sonuçları olan ırkçılık, cinsiyetçilik ve eşitsizlikle karşı karşıya kalan insanlar olarak kendi “elleriyle” işledikler
