Rugül Serbest

Just Die Smiling Into My Eyes - Curated by Taner Ceylan 15 May - 28 Jun 2025 Istanbul Just Die Smiling Into My Eyes presents an emotional map that explores the boundaries of love, longing, and social constraint.

Art historical references, from Raphael to Courbet, Vermeer to Caravaggio, merge with Serbest’s personal experiences, mirroring the layered nature of love.
“Love drives me mad,” says Serbest. “I must deal with this curse—this part of myself that refuses to settle for less. Art, like love, is both murder and suicide.” Read more

Ahmet Civelek

Number 3 : Grit 24 Nov - 29 Dec 2018 Istanbul Pi Artworks Istanbul is pleased to present Number 3: Grit, a solo exhibition by Turkish-American multimedia artist, Ahmet Civelek. Centering around a concept usually quite foreign to creative artists -destruction- in these new bodies of work Civelek employs a humble, readymade, and quite contradictory material: commercially manufactured sandpaper.
