ASLI ERDOĞAN
EVEN SILENCE IS NO LONGER YOURS

by Rachida Brakni
“I refuse to be an accomplice to the murder of people, words or the truth,” wrote novelist and journalist Aslı Erdoğan. Some of the pictures in A Pillar of Smoke landed their photographers in jail. This exhibition is about contemporary Turkey, where words and images are censored. A projection accompanies actress Rachida Brakni’s exceptional reading from Aslı Erdoğan’s book Even Silence Is No Longer Yours to make the author’s voice heard in her fight against attacks on freedom in today’s Turkey.

TREVOR PAGLEN
THE PLANET AS SENSOR

American artist Trevor Paglen presents his projects, which feature images, infrastructure, vertical geography, artificial intelligence and the shifting nature and politics of landscape. First coming to prominence researching the US Army’s covert activities, his work deliberately blurs the lines between science, art and journalism. Paglen’s photographs explore the use of drones and how military technology has invaded the American landscape.

ROBERT DELPIRE BY SARAH MOON

Homage to a great publisher by the great photographer who was also his companion.
