Arjen Zwart and Peter Edel - two Dutch photographers living in Turkey
After
they had met several years ago, a plan gradually developed to show
Turkey through different interpretations of photography with a joint
exhibition. From an almost monochrome Istanbul portrayed by Arjen Zwart,
to Turkish nature in all its colourful glory by Peter Edel. However,
they meet each other in a quest for the abstract. Photography and the
abstract seems like an odd combination at first. For after all,
photography is known to be bound to reality. But as the work of Zwart
and Edel shows, the abstract is part of reality. Moreover, their work
shows that the abstract is abundant in Turkey, a country which was
explored by both to create their photographs.
