Keywords
Yüksel Arslan is an artist who mines the depths of the unconscious mind, bringing together Western and Eastern aesthetics and philosophy in finely wrought works that he calls Artures. Accompanying the exhibition Yüksel Arslan: Visual Interpretations, this publication features twenty of the artist’s Arture drawings dealing with subjects as varied as schizophrenia and the eroticism of de Sade, Bataille, and Artaud, as well as visual interpretations of artists, poets, writers, scientists, musicians, and philosophers that have influenced his thinking.
