On Tuesday October 26, our Fellows from the 4th SNF Artist Fellowship Program had the chance to visit the exhibition “I heard it from the valleys” and be guided through its works by the curator and SNF ARTWORKS Fellow Eva Vaslamatzi. The exhibitoin is the result of the participation of Eva Vaslamatzi (SNF ARTWORKS Fellow) in the Curatorial Residency Program at SAHA Association in Istanbul (May-June 2021) made possible by the ARTWORKS association and with the support of Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) and presents a series of new productions linked through techniques, narratives and symbols related to the wide field of folk art. Folk production and forms of knowledge, mainly anonymous, are approached here as a field of inspiration and possibility for understanding forms and behaviors, which function individually and independently from grander national narratives.
Artists: Hera Büyüktaşçıyan, Aslι Çavuşoğlu, Anastasia Douka, Marina Papazyan, Evi Souli, VASKOS (Vasilis Noulas & Kostas Tzimoulis)
Curated by Eva Vaslamatzi
