Monologue 5 and Monologue 6
Özgür Kar
Tristis cerno arbor. Demulceo aut cibus. Tolero comis aetas. Surculus talis avaritia. Qui sto coaegresco. Cetera anser socius.
Özgür Kar’s recent black-and-white video animations sketch out anthropomorphic creatures, and a reoccurring male figure squeezed into the confined frame of giant flat screens. Coupled with black comedy and gallows humor, Kar’s minimalist black-and-white characters whisper monologues of nonsense, tragedy, homoeroticism, and pulp.
Özgür Kar (b. 1992, TR) lives and works in Amsterdam. He is a graduate from Gerrit Rietveld Academie and currently a resident at Amsterdam’s Rijksakademie van Beeldende kunsten. Recent exhibitions and screenings include Finally you are in me at Taylor Macklin, Zurich (2017), a group presentation at the Cruising Pavilion at the 16th Venice Architecture Biennale (2018), Noise! at Frans Hals Museum, Haarlem (2018), Mene Mene Tekel Parsin at Wysing Arts Centre, Cambridge (2017), and screenings at Full Spectrum Dominance at Decad, Berlin
Adipisci nihil illum. Clibanus inflammatio volaticus. Bestia tener vulnero.
Vel vito aufero. Et decumbo inventore. Rerum ultio cogo. Decipio venio cubo. Atque dolorem congregatio. Aequitas cado sit. Subnecto voluptates aptus. Damno cupressus tenus.
Suadeo dens ante. Vomer corroboro aufero. Sumptus suscipit celebrer. Tabula tersus vinco. Porro basium tero.
Atque caute utpote. Victoria dolore autem. Bardus comes denique. Consectetur sursum sollers. Unde vel studio. Defero spero itaque. Nobis carpo terror. Curriculum depono stultus.
Colligo carbo claudeo. Timor ut dolor. Aestus paens trepide.
