English to Turkish: Artist and Artwork General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting
Source text - English The artist, both in terms of her artwork and the materials she has used, is one the most innovative names of this period. From her works combining painting with sculpture to her installations blended with performance, she has produced her work always one jump ahead and inside her own narrative field, in a so-called avant-garde manner. ... Consequently, her artwork has been analyzed in terms of motion—both form and content-wise—while at the same time emphasizing new opportunities of artistic expression. This very battle, which can be defined as an interdisciplinary quest, indicates all at once an inter-formative amalgamization. Within this scope, these developmental models were grouped with art-historical examples, while the extent of the scope was expanded focusing on recent artworks with historical references.
Translation - Turkish Sanatçı, hem eserleri hem de kullandığı malzemeler açısından bu dönemin en yenilikçi isimlerindendir. Resim ve heykeli bir araya getirdiği çalışmalarından enstalasyonu performans ile harmanladığı işlere kadar kendi anlatı sınırları içerisinde hep bir adım ötede, bir nevi avangard bir yaklaşımla üretmiştir. ... Sonuç olarak sanatçının üretimleri, biçim ve içeriksel olarak hareket kavramı üzerinden değerlendirilirken, sanatta yeni ifade olanakları yaratan yönlerine vurgu yapılmıştır. Genel olarak disiplinler arası bir arayış olarak ifade edilebilecek bu savaş, biçimlendirmeler arası bir karışıma da işaret eder. Bağlam kapsamında bu gelişimsel modeller sanat tarihsel örnekler ile gruplandırılmaya çalışılmış; bağlam, tarihsel referanslara gönderme yapan güncel sanat örnekleriyle geliştirilmiştir.

English to Turkish: Artist Platform General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting
Source text - English This union, which tries to solve the challenges faced by both the curator and the artist individually, on a single platform, eventually also requires financial support.
The white walls of the exhibition room, the art lovers that fill the space, the auctioneers who were able to spare an hour from their busy work, maybe the buyers who are contemplating adding one last piece to their collections. While everyone is concentrated on both the content of the artwork and the agony of the production process, perhaps the only person who has to think about the next day is the artist.
That is why the only thing that our union can give to the next generation is this piece of advice to support art, which is accepted as a form of resistance, with a sense of community and purpose, whether it has a buyer or not.
Translation - Turkish Hem küratör hem de sanatçının ayrı ayrı karşılaştığı zorlukları tek bir platformda çözmeye uğraşan bu birlik, en nihayetinde mali desteğe de ihtiyaç duymaktadır.
Sergi salonunun beyaz duvarları, mekanı dolduran sanatseverler, yoğun işlerinden başını kaldırıp gelebilmiş müzayedeciler, belki koleksiyonlarına son bir parça eklemeyi düşünen alıcılar... Herkes hem sanat eserinin içeriğine hem de üretim sürecinin sancısına odaklanmışken belki de bir sonraki günü düşünmek zorunda kalan tek kişi sanatçının ta kendisidir.
İşte tam da bu yüzden, birliğimizin bizden sonraki nesile verebileceği tek şey, bir direniş biçimi olarak kabul edilen sanata, alıcısı olsun ya da olmasın, her zaman bir topluluk bilinci ve gayesiyle destekte bulunma nasihatidir.
