ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
By
Gregory & Ernest Disney-Britton
The
Louvre reopened on Wednesday after shutting down for three-days of
art-world anxiety over the
spread of the coronavirus. On the same day, we read a
New York Times profile on a D.C. introvert's 150 piece art collection, including work by
Sarp Kerem Yavuz. In 2014, the Turkish photographer began exploring gender and religion in his series "Maşallah" by projecting islamic patterns onto naked men.
Priced between $2,500 and $10,000, and represented by
Carl Hammer Gallery in Chicago, the work of Sarp Kerem Yavuz is
our art of the week.
