Zümrütoğlu: Atonal Drift
Past exhibition
Overview
JD Malat Gallery is honoured to present Atonal Drift, a new body of work by leading Turkish artist, Zümrütoğlu (b. 1970).
Atonal Drift brings together Zümrütoğlu's highly expressive paintings and sculptures in an attempt to demonstrate how the artist explores the theme of the 'dissonant and disharmonious body' as well as the possibilities of figurative abstraction across different mediums. The dynamism of colour and fleshy painterliness which first captivated Zümrütoğlu's audience through his paintings, is now offered to the viewer through his new sculptural work. After a visceral shock, or being hit 'in the gut' as Zümrütoğlu often states, one begins to see figures slowly emerge and materialise through the thick paint and ceramic forms.
