Hardcover. Condition: New. ALADAG, NEVIN Nevin Aladag. Stage = Sahne. [Exhibition catalogue]. Edited by Ilkay Balic. Curator: Emre Baykal. Istanbul: Arter, 2012. 4to., 96 p., color ills. In Turkish and English. Original binding. New ISBN: 9789756959572 CATALOG: Painting & Sculpture KEYWORDS: Contemprary Art Running now through May 27, 2012, Nevin Aladag's exhibition "Sahne = Stage" populates ARTER's Istanbul galleries with fantastical curtains of hair. In each composition, the brightly colored, artificial strands hang from a pole, alternately parted in the middle, pulled back, even braided or in loose pigtails. Elegant and evocative, these allusive works manage to convey specific hairstyles as well as functioning stage curtains. The larger works are interactive, and visitors can step into a recessed wall space behind the hair and perform as if on a stage or watch others doing so. This performative theatricality also extends to the works themselves' synthetic and often neon colored, they are flamboyant costume wigs that don't even try to look like real hair. Born in Turkey and living in Berlin, Aladag often incorporates participation and performance into her works as a way of playing with identity. In one piece, she brought an audience into an empty theater, where participants expected to watch a show, but nothing ever materialized on stage. Instead, as more people came into the theater, the house lights grew brighter and brighter, and the audience members themselves became inadvertent performers, especially as they started turning to each other to discuss their confusion.
