Art On Istanbul welcomes visitors to Art On Istanbul from November 8th to December 7th. Erdal İnci's solo exhibition "Real Estate" will take place in Piyalepaşa. The exhibition will feature İnci's recent works, which offer a unique perspective on the perception of urban imagery, real estate, and architectural facades.
"Real Estate" includes a bird's-eye view of Istanbul's Galata, Cihangir, and Moda districts, along with four other large-format prints. These city views, with their manipulated details, offer a surreal interpretation of the chaotic urban fabric. The "Facade" series, featured in the exhibition, consists of 40 photographs of different buildings in Istanbul, New York, and Paris. İnci highlights the hidden spaces of these structures, such as doors and windows, revealing their character and providing clues about the artificial results that remain on the surface of architectural facades.
Highlights of the exhibition include interior sections of Istanbul's iconic Kariye Mosque and Karga Bar, obtained using photogrammetry, a 3D scanning method. İnci visualizes these iconic spaces from optically impossible angles, revealing their interiors. These prints, framed in aluminum and transformed into sculptures, are supported by two animated works, and the section sections, illuminated by two lighting elements, allow the viewer to explore the complex geometry of the information.
