Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (30 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 128, [4] p., color and b/w ills. Bilge Friedlaender. Words, numbers, lines.= Sözcükler, sayilar, çizgiler. Edited and curated by Süreyyya Evren, Ilkay Balic. The works in "Words, Numbers, Lines" centre upon Bilge Friedlaender's rigorous investigation of created forms such as "line" and "square" as expressions of the relationship between humans and nature. The exhibition focuses on a specific period (1971-1983) of Friedlaender's production, researching the infinite possibilities of a line, a torn line, and a square that defies gravity. She produced expansive yet intimate material for investigation. During this decade, even though she did not identify herself as a minimalist, Friedlaender develops a modest visual language utilising rather simple materials and meticulously continues her almost experimental search. She was in constant dialogue with her own work through her writing, questioning herself, and asking philosophical questions that remain compelling, and grant us access to her ideas. Engaging with the universal experiences of gravity, horizon, and perceptions of duality, Friedlaender created a body of work that is even more relevant today.
