Né à Istanbul en 1978, Ali Alışır a commencé ses études en graphisme en 1996 après avoir reçu une bourse d’excellence de la Faculté des Beaux-Arts de l’Université Yeditepe.
Il s'est concentré au montage numérique pendant sa maîtrise en photographie, obtenue à l’Accademia Italiana de Florence. À travers ses expositions "Virtual Bodies", "Virtual Places", "Virtual Wars" et "Virtual Landscapes" organisées entre 2009 et 2015, Ali Alışır a abordé le thème du désarroi éprouvé par les individus sous le bombardement d'images, ainsi que les mondes virtuels et artificiels, créés comme refuge pour s'en protéger.
Dans ses expositions "Cosmos" et "Hybrid Souls" présentées après 2016, Alışır s'intéresse au stress ressenti par les êtres humains qui tentent de trouver un équilibre dans leur quotidien malgré la complexité de la vie moderne et du temps qui s’écoule trop vite.
Ayant le but de retranscrire les conflits intérieurs de l’être humain au moyen de mouvements corporels, l'artiste examine les problèmes sociaux dans différents domaines à travers ses œuvres digitales, tels que la philosophie, la sociologie, la littérature et le cinéma.
De plus, il met ses préoccupations à l’ordre du jour et nous met en garde contre un «Espace» alternatif grâce à ses nouvelles créations.
Les œuvres d'Ali Alışır sont exposées dans de nombreuses collections privées et internationales, notamment le Musée d'Art Moderne d'Istanbul, le palais présidentiel de la République de Turquie et 94 ambassades.
Treating Ali Alışır’s artistic practice in periods, the book reveals the visual-imaginative journey of his individual civilizational narrative by presenting to readers his 2009-2019 series Hybrid Souls (2017), Cosmos (2016), Virtual Landscapes (2014), Virtual Wars (2012), Virtual Places (2011), Virtual Bodies (2009), as a path leading from the body’s creation, to the body’s association with space/place, the body’s abandonment of this place and entry into war with other bodies, the body’s relinquishment of warfare and self-surrender to nature and landscapes, all the way to the body’s discovery of the cosmos by orienting itself from the world to the universe, and then from the universe to its own inner and spiritual existential search. The exhibition held in parallel to this book on Ali Alışır’s decade-long artistic journey allows art audiences to visually validate the book’s content.
Article en anglais | Ali Aliṣir is a Fine Art Photographer from Istanbul. The next photographic series focuses on the collective stress experienced by contemporary culture. Here, Aliṣir's subjects attempt to achieve peace, despite being ensnared by the complexity and haste of modern life. The artist aims to reflect the inner conflict in physical movement. His hybrid bodies melt into one another with such precipitousness, making it impossible to focus on one individual subject. Subsequently, by superimposing layers of human bodies, Aliṣir seeks to examine the societal issues that manifest in many different forms and through various fields, such as philosophy, sociology, literature and cinema. Aliṣir's hybrid human bodies all struggle seperately yet together, creating a kind of chaotic harmony in defiance of the complexities of modern-day life.
Entretien en anglais | We have made a detailed interview with the academician and contemporary photography artist Ali Alışır about his works, production process and exhibition. After the education of graphics at Yeditepe University, you studied photography at Accademia Italiana. Although graphics has a close relationship with photography, how come did you choose photography as a means of communication? Ali Alışır : I had already been painting long before I started my education in graphics. The year I entered Yeditepe University with achievement grant, the faculty of fine arts were on Büyükada. Our education environment was a fascinating place as the island, and in terms of academic staff we had a rare fortune. At the university I had the chance to visit lots of exhibitions and to read the publications on the plastic arts. I saw that many things one plans to do have already been done or said. They have been done or somehow mentioned about by others before you.
