TRANSFIXED WITH GREGOR TURK

October 15, 2014

Featuring:
Artist Gregor Turk

OVERVIEW

In this episode of Sidewalk Radio, Host Gene Kansas talks art, advertising, and the power of imagery with renowned artist, Gregor TurkA lover of nature, Turk does not much care for billboard advertising. However, with his latest work, Apparitions: Look Away, he celebrates it, utilizing the medium to both transfix and transform our conversations. 

The final stance in a 3-part series, black and white photographic images of General Sherman's eyes glare out from their poster-boarded vantage points above the Atlanta BeltLine, enticing sentiments from agony to amusement, inciting actions from table talk to rock throwing. A provoking artist, Turk makes us think about what we see...and in this case, what sees us. 

This Atlanta Celebrates Photography commissioned public art installation is certainly a sight to behold. On view through November 15th. Take a listen, then go take a look.
