“Planned actions;
that expand ceaselessly,
that are fierce,
that are unutterable,
that have to exist
with other fads...
—
that never let it out,
that only appear on
slow nights,
that never explain,
that steal the shadow
of other actions.”
Born:
1974, Germany.
Based:
New York.
The exhibition:
Is Akdogan's 2nd
solo with Hannah
Hoffman, in Los
Angeles, presenting
a series of new
works that touch
on invisible standards
and everyday objects,
such as crash rails,
in order to mine
emotional reactions
and systemic analysis.
“I’m interested in
how their varying
physical appearances
are largely determined
by how they operate.
That sort of operational
abstraction is what
holds together the
construction of
ambience.”
