Two Artists, Two Different Perspectives in Sculpture

Bahçeşehir University Art Activities Unit (BUART) is hosting two sculptors. The figurative stone sculptures of Demet and Dinçer Güngörür, who are partners both in life and in their profession, have been greatly admired. This is the duo's first exhibition in a university setting...
 

Another BUART event has met its audience. The exhibition "Two Artists, Two Different Perspectives in Sculpture" by Demet and Dinçer Güngörür is attracting interest at the Fazıl Say Foyer.

"SCULPTURE IS AN ACT OF RESISTANCE"
 

The artists, who say they prefer female figures because they are aesthetic, work with stone, which they see as a warm and high-quality material. Demet Güngörür, who said she loves the most challenging side of stone, said, "Sometimes the stone shapes me, and sometimes I master the stone. As a woman, struggling with something in particular is a wonderful feeling."

Describing art as an incurable disease, Dinçer Güngörür said that he considers the moments he spends without sculpting or entering the studio as time not lived, and continued: "We silence many negative thoughts in our heads and get to work. It is not something you can do without loving it.""
 

The exhibition of the artists, who expressed their pleasure at being at Bahçeşehir University, which they see as an art-loving environment, will remain open to visitors until Wednesday.
