- Notes:
- Samih Rifat, Much Is To Be Done departs from the ethically and aesthetically uncompromising work of Samih Rifat, an important figure in the world of culture renowned for his photographs, translations, documentaries and writings. One could describe his work as “an act of art and thought”, and this exhibition aims to expand his creative process in order to understand this intellectual of a “Hezarfen”, who sadly passed away too soon. The catalogue accompanying the exhibition includes Serhan Ada’s curatorial text titled “Much is to be done, alas, time!” and Esra Özdoğan’s text offering a thorough look at Samih Rifat’s photographs titled “Samih Rifat: Before the Death of the Author”, Enis Batur’s commentaries on his poems “Bard of Overlooked Poems”, “In Pursuit of Lost Beauties” by Celal Üster on Samih Rifat’s translations, as well as texts by Orçun Türkay, Necmi Sönmez, Hüsrevİsfendiyaroğlu and Nevzat Sayın and a comprehensive discussion among his close companions titled “Talking About Samih Rifat ”.
