Nevin Aladag: Citylanguage II

Part of the exhibition Modernity? Perspectives from France and Turkey

The works in the exhibition focused on the dynamics of modern life, both criticized and considered as an endless opportunity for research by visual arts. In a globalized world, we are going through a period of diverse, profound, and complex relationships in which uses of new technologies and the social media form intricate structures. Modernity? Perspectives from France and Turkey attempted to remind us how the remnants of modernity, which constantly reappear in various ways, have seeped into our lives in today’s relatively directionless world. Featuring artists from Turkey and France, a role model for Turkey’s modernization, the exhibitionopens for discussion how the remains of modernity can transform the present and the future.
