Nilgün is a doctor who has recently divorced her husband and has been appointed to a small town. In one of the first days of living in the town, she is assigned to examine the women in the brothel. Here she meets her childhood friend Anjelik. Life has brought the two together again. Their relations will be tested by the pressure of society and their surroundings on the one hand and in the shadow of class and cultural conflicts on the other.
Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
Our Doublethink Double vision exhibition’s title alludes to George Orwell’s seminal work 1984 and presents a selection that includes Tracey Emin, Marcel Dzama, Anselm Kiefer, Bruce Nauman, Raymond Pettibon, and Thomas Ruff, as well as Turkish artists, tracing the steps of pluralistic thought through works of art.
