The exhibition titled “From the Blue Table”, which shows that tables are not only set for food but also for friendship, sharing and inspiration, opened at Arnavutköy Galeri Selvin.
The inspiration for the exhibition is the friendship and art-filled tables that Berna Türemen and Ali İsmail Türemen set up with their artist friends in their homes in Teşvikiye and Marmaris Turunç, which can only be reached by sea, years ago.
In addition to Türemen, this exhibition includes the paintings of Cihat Burak, Ergin İnan, İlhan Berk and Mustafa Pilevneli, drawn and painted at that table.
Berna Türemen gave information about the works by saying, “We always painted at our tables. İlhan Berk loved drawing patterns on napkins, letter envelopes and anything he could find. In this exhibition, you see the document of all our experiences from 1974 to the 1990s, made by painting.”
The exhibition will be open at Galeri Selvin until June 10.
