"The Secret Portraits and Others" at Gallery 11.17

A selection of drawings and paintings of Mehmet Güleryüz, one of the leading names of Turkish contemporary art, will be exhibited at Gallery 11.17.

The work of the artist invites the audience to reexamine and reflect on the mundane, the routine, a sort of guided journey into the here and now, leaving the viewer with a new perspective from which to reexamine their surroundings. The exhibition brings together figurative and portrait works created between 2000-2019. Mehmet Güleryüz's drawings contain the artist's inner world, observations and fantastic images realised with the artist's unique style.

This important exhibition has been realised in cooperation with The Empire Project and the exhibition will be on display at Gallery 11.17 from December 3 till January 3rd.
