Ahmet Öğüt will present an overview of his artistic practice, reflecting on how he maintains continuity while simultaneously navigating moments of disruption and rupture. He will particularly highlight some of his works that marked significant shifts in his approach and opened new directions in his artistic creation.
Ahmet Öğüt was born in Diyarbakir (TR) and lives in Amsterdam. His recent and upcoming solo exhibitions include Modern Essays 1: Across the Slope at SALT in Istanbul (TR), Once upon a time a clock-watcher during overtime hours at Fondazione Giuliani in Rome, Stones to throw at Kunsthalle Lissabon in Lisbon (PT), and Speculative Social Fantasies at CASCA in Adelaide (AU). His works have also been exhibited as part of group shows at the 12th Istanbul Biennial, the 4th Moscow Biennial Rewriting Worlds, the 2011 Asian Art Biennial in Taichung (RC), and the exhibition The Walls That Divide Us at Apexart in New York (USA).
Some of his forthcoming exhibitions include Moving for Wards Counting Back Wards at MUAC in Mexico City, TRACK in Ghent (B), and Skyscraper: Art and Architecture Against Gravity at MCA in Chicago (USA).
The Summer School Revolutionary Routes / Destination: Comradeship is jointly conceptualized and organized by the curators of MSUCG, MG+MSUM Ljubljana, and MAO Belgrade.
