Galerist hosts Rasim Aksan’s solo show

ISTANBUL

Galerist in Istanbul’s Tepebaşı district is hosting the first solo exhibition of Rasim Aksan, known for his figurative and hyper-realist works, between Nov. 20 and Dec. 15. Aksan’s works on canvas are created by using oil and acrylic paint alongside calligraphy and marbling ink, with the latter applied by airbrush. His works on paper showcase the additional use of pencils and crayons without using oil paint. The “Untitled1” exhibition gives us a good insight into the artist’s works, highlighting his various methods and approaches. Aksan possesses an archive made up of thousands of images, compiled from the visual media and including photographs of everyday events that he himself took. Address: Meşrutiyet Street, Beyoğlu, No:67/1
