Istanbul Gallery Shows Hungarian Photographers

English

 Attila Floszmann: Silence after the revolution 9
The show, called Traces, features Attila Floszmann?s series Silence After the Revolution, Gábor Kerekes?s series Alchemy and Ákos Czigány?s series Darwin Online.
 
The gallery says Kerekes is ?one of the most remarkable photographers to emerge from Hungary in the last fifty years?.
 
?The complexity and richness of his body of work continue to strongly influence younger generations. On the one hand, he works within the framework of a very strict concept, and on the other, he is obsessed with the quality of photographic development.?
 
Floszmann?s series was shot in Libya, just after the revolution. The photographer ?offers us the present time as an aftermath, in which the traces of war emphasize its lack of humanity and evoke a common sorrow that we are able to share with the people who lived there,? The Empire Project says.
 
Czigány used digital scans of the books of Charles Darwin in an online archive as the starting point for his series.
