Marc Quinn: The Sleep of Reason

Feb 08, 2014 - Apr 27, 2014

Marc Quinn's first solo exhibition in Turkey brings together more than 30 works the artist has produced since 1999. Presenting the wide range of media and materials used by Marc Quinn, the exhibition features a number of his seminal works along with some of his most recent paintings and sculptures, which are shown for the first time at ARTER. "The Sleep of Reason" revolves around history, time and space, body and identity related themes, which the artist has been exploring since the 1990s and proposes an investigation into the relationship between nature and culture as well as the interaction between art and technology through dependency.


The exhibition's title is inspired by Goya's etching "The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters" (from the series of aquatint plates entitled "Los Caprichos", 1799).
