Art in the Auditorium III

Art in the Auditorium III April 21–24, 2011

İstanbul Modern Cinema hosts the third selection of Art in the Auditorium, the video project by Whitechapel Art Gallery which takes contemporary video, animation, and short films to different corners of the world. Among artists in this year’s itinerant video program are: Ergin Çavuşoğlu with his work which references Andy Warhol’s film “Empire,” Swiss artist Elodie Pong with her film in which stuffed birds debate the economic crisis, and Vietnamese artist Dinh Q. Lê with his film which brings actor Charlie Sheen and his father Martin Sheen together by cutting excerpts from their films and explores different subjects ranging from Hollywood and war to the complexity of family relationships and the problematic structure of history.

In collaboration the Institute for the Re-adjustment of Clocks
