Sultanahmet, 2019 ISTHMUS @istanbul74_

Isthmus Ceramics will be on view as part my show opening tonight @istanbul74_

ISTHMUS opens tonight at @istanbul74_ and runs parallel to the @istanbulbienali “When I first visited Istanbul in 1999, its people and their beautiful environment fascinated me. I felt an immediate connection to the city as somehow it also reminded me of Havana, Cuba, the home of my parents. The energy of the Bosphorus, the walls of the town and the calligraphy inscribed on temple walls were inspiring at first sight.” “ISTHMUS” consists of new works on paper, paintings, sculptures and ceramics, some of which were made during my residency at Istanbul’74 and pay homage to neighborhoods such as Beşiktaş, Sultan Ahmet, and Kandilli.

ISTHMUS Opening tomorrow Monday Sept 9 @istanbul74_ 7-9pm

ISTANBUL'74 will meet viewers at a brand new location on Monday 9 September, with José Parlá's exhibition 'ISTHMUS', running parallel to the 16th İstanbul Biennal. The new space resides in a historic building at the entrance to the Akaretler district and was built in 1912-1916 by notable architect Vedat Tek, one of the main figures of the First Turkish National Architectural Movement. José Parlá will be filling the entirety of the three floors of the space with new works, including works produced in residency at ISTANBUL'74 in collaboration with Gorbon Tiles, paying homage to the history of ceramics and calligraphy in Turkey. @joseparla #JoseParla #VedatTek #Akaretler #ISTANBUL74 thank you @jotunturkiye

Recycling the worn and layered posters found on city walls has been part of my practice since the 1990’s when I first visited Istanbul. As a child I was always interested in drawing and art but I became an artist painting on city walls and while doing that I stated to collect photos like this one for inspiration, as well as the fragments of posters themselves in order to reuse them as collage elements in my paintings. #ISTHMUS @istanbul74_

Listening to Celia Cruz while working in Istanbul this afternoon reminded me of being in Cuba. Dear Celia, I feel you are dancing in the heavens and maybe right next to me because the breeze of the Bosporus reminds of El Malecón in La Habana.

We had a photo shoot with Harper’s Baazar, I started my installations of the studio and worked on ceramics with @gorbontiles , textiles installation with @animliving and of course made time for delicious fresh seafood in between. Thank you to the whole team for a warm welcome! It’s been fun so far and we will share more along the way.

#tbt to my installation at the @beyondthestreetsart exhibition now extended until September 29. The @nytimes just published an interesting article where reporter Jon Caramanica wrote: “It’s important to remember that graffiti was never just one thing.”

A beautiful sunset as Istanbul buzzes.

Rest In Peace to one of the greatest, Stanley Pratt known as Stan 153. My condolences And love to family and friends. Stan was a true gentleman and kind soul who guided a lot the best writers with his influential style and also his easy going intelligent kindness. It was a pleasure to know you and an honor to paint with you. Here’s a picture I took in 1998 at the Hall of Fame in Harlem at 106th street and Park. That day we painted with Stan 153, Kase 2, Doms, News. Dez Chain 3 and many others. ✌️ @zephyrgraffiti @keo_xmen @partonetds

Years Layered Into Script, 2019 part of #IsthmusParla @istanbul74_

This message is in honor of my friend and mentor his excellence the one known as King Kase 2, the King of Style. Hailing from The Bronx Jackson Houses, Kase‘s influence has touched writers and artists worldwide of all walks of life, and some may not even be aware for it. As a mentor Kase took me in when I moved to New York and continued to teach me about letters and style while his attitude also taught me about strength and willpower. He may have been having a bad day but every time I asked him how he was doing he always said he was doing well. Kase was electrocuted when he was twelve and lost his right arm and leg but that didn’t make him weak, instead he became stronger and went on to paint entire subway cars and invent significant styles in the art of writers. He often referenced super heroes when he spoke of how he would style and color his works with lightning and shining flashes. Kase was a true living super hero and teacher, an urban Legend. Peace to all The Fantastic Partners. #kase2 #kingofstyle #tfpcrew

Getting Up and Breaking Down Walls, 2019 for my upcoming exhibition Textures of Memory curated by Dieter Buchhart at @hocafoundation and @benbrownfinearts Hong Kong this September #hongkong #texturesofmemory

Assembling things and more things a young man arrived at this corner a week ago and everyday piled and added things to his vehicle. He claimed he is an artist, he also chased me down the street wanting to trade t-shirts. I’m a fan, I like his work and I observed a lot of people smiled when they looked at this in the neighborhood. And then the police and the sanitation department showed up and took him away. #brooklynreality #socialsculpture #society psycho fabric
