They were able to last for two days only, stuck between the publicity posters and Istanbul's fast changing pace. While the posters I've affixed on temporary panels or on anonymous walls also lasted for two days average, usually the people whose houses face that direction didn't want to see the posters and reacted. Additionally, these posters were collected by garbagemen the morning after. And the people passing by generally showed interest in the posters and tried to read them while questioning what they mean.

2014New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. In special box. 4to. (32 x 25 cm). In English and Turkish. 319 p., color ills. Nejad Devrim. Texts by Burcu Pelvanoglu. Edited by Haldun Dostoglu, Serra Karapinar Yentürk. Nejad Devrim is one of the prominent Turkish artists who spent a significant period of his career in Paris. He is a painter who flourished in the libertarian atmosphere of Paris where artistic practice was fuelled by an atmosphere open to criticism. His aim was different than the previous generation of Turkish intellectuals who came to Paris for a Western education only to replicate it in Turkey. Devrim was part of a generation who constituted the first modernists of Turkey. His works were contemporaneous to modernist artists of his period and looked to actively participate in the European art scene. He abandoned the figurative compositions that he commenced in Istanbul and produced works that would later be identified as the masterpieces of Turkish abstract art. He established a genuine place in the European art scene by carrying the multi-colored compositions of Byzantine mosaics to his works. Devrim is recognized as the most important representer of geometrical and lyrical abstraction in Turkish history of art. As a Lyrical Abstract artist, Nejad Devrim believed that nature should not be imitated, but rather its meaning explored. He depicted what he found in lyrically expressive paintings in which color is used as a powerful compositional element. He regarded his paintings as places in which chance encounters and unknowns might be discovered. (Source: Galeri Nev).
