Established to support young artists and designers, ARMAGGAN Art & Design Gallery hosts “States of Material III “ exhibition, opening on June 11, 2015.
“States of Material III” exhibition is meeting with its audience at ARMAGGAN Art&Design Gallery, located in ARMAGGAN Nuruosmaniye store. Including artists and designers such as ZOOM TPU, Arman Suciyan, Yavuz Ergun, Nejla Güvenç, Neşe Çoğal, Güneş Özmen and Tan Taşpolatoğlu, the exhibition focuses on the most essential element of the artwork and product ;“material”. Various disciplines, materials and approaches unite in a higher concept in the exhibition.
The artist and the designer who do not know each other or have not produced a “work” together are paired to make a “thing” in the exhibiton. They are not limited in any ways in terms of their “work/product” and are let completely free. It is unknown what will come out of the experimental process of collaboration between the artist and the designer, until the last moment.
Produced as a result of 21 group and 7 individual practice, the exhibition involves works of artists and designers who use different materials, and techniques but share the same approach in art. The works and products, prepared by combining the expertise in production of designers and the aesthetic approach of artists in 3 months, come together in ARMAGGAN Art&Design Gallery.
