About the Zedes show*

the Zedes exhibition - l'exposition Zedes - panoramic view - vue panoramique

(…) To witness the vibrancy, the dance of colours, the feat of the canvas (or more appropriately the medium) constituting an active element of the creative burst (see the works with your favourite and most beautiful muse and the playful yet complex forays into aluminium) and the energy and thought they evoke is quite simply awesome. It would be unfair to mention favourites but Beauty is our Duty is both elegant and playful – beautiful women are dangerous (as in gun slinging and adorning hot-pants and red hot lipstick). The two pieces featuring Isabelle in various poses expands the horizon of geometry while making the work feeling accessible, nay personal. The sight of Cagla and Isabelle dancing is almost a manifesto in aesthetics that works splendidly because the wood is so fragile, a hint to the ephemeral nature of youthful beauty perhaps. But I loved both the picture in a picture of your Roman conquest with you striking a most handsome pose. I loved the intricacy and complexity of this piece that is so finely layered that is made complete by the rare venture into narcissism. You have indeed become a subject, a Roman subject that is by this display of classic maleness. Later hour and faltering energy do not allow me to continue ad nauseam on this great display of intelligent yet personal art. This is the best works that I have seen from you and I am in awe of your cultural prowess. I fear that there is more and better things to come. (…)

Hey man, R-E-S-P-E-C-K to the max!
