From 07.04.2021 – 06.03.2022 the Borusan Contemporary Art Center, exhibits “Les Abîmes”, 2006 by Hervé HEUZÉ. “Hervé HEUZÉ places at the center of his work a monument made of mesh, which stretches deep in the sea, rising towards the surface like woven pyramids of fishnets, with threads that get tangled as it approaches the light. HEUZÉ unites two abimes, namely those that expand from the surface to the bottom of the sea and from the horizon to the uppermost level of the atmosphere.” Text written by Borusan Contemporary

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Alain KIRILI on May 19, 2021 in New York, at the age of 74. Born in 1946 Alain KIRILI is known for his sculptures in wrought iron, but also in plaster. Classified as Post-Minimalist, he freed himself from it and highlighted sensuality, spontaneity and improvisation with more complex aesthetics. Together with Ariane, he contributed a lot to sharing his passion for free jazz by organizing regular concerts in his loft in Tribeca. Ron GORCHOV and Alain KIRILI offered a beautiful exhibition at Galerie Richard, Paris, from October 19 to December 30, 2009 entitled “Celebration of the hand: the art of Ron Gorchov and Alain Kirili”.
