Throughout music history
there have been countless talented bands from the New York scene. One
of the most extraordinary periods is the No Wave. Beginning in the late
70's, most people labeled this style as 'unlistenable'. Kill Your
Idols explores the No Wave, focusing on bands and musicians, old
and new, like DNA, Suicide, Foetus, Sonic Youth, Yeah Yeah Yeahs or
Liars, with their comments, thoughts and musical values..
Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
The Bosphorus, which divides the city from north to south, separates two continents, renders Istanbul distinct for western painters, offers the most picturesque spectacles for western artists.
