Cevdet Erek: Bergama Stereotip
A continuation and a variation of the work Bergama Stereo, which was first presented in Germany at Turbinenhalle as part of the Ruhrtriennale in Bochum and then in the historical hall of Hamburger Bahnhof Museum in Berlin in 2019, Cevdet Erek’s solo exhibition Bergama Stereotip consists of a sounding architecture conceived for the gallery space at Arter. Curated by Selen Ansen, Bergama Stereotip stands as a vestige featuring a portion of Bergama Stereo’s structure: a reminder of the Great Altar of Pergamon and a remainder of the work’s prior version. The book accompanying the exhibition features an essay by Colin Lang focusing on Bergama Stereo and Selen Ansen’s curatorial text on the exhibition at Arter. The book, designed by Vahit Tuna, brings together installation views taken by flufoto with photographs showing the historical remains of the Great Altar as well as its display in the Pergamonmuseum.
