Broken Manifestos. For her exhibition, thanks to SAM Art Projects, the artist presents a series of 3 installations. The first space is filled with drawings produced during her residency at Villa Raffet. It forms an antechamber, a subliminal state that leads to the vast video panorama in the next space.

In residence at Villa Raffet as part of SAM Art Projects since August 2010, Inci Eviner is a Turkish artist who lives and works in Istanbul.
One of the most prominent artists on the contemporary Turkish scene and represented by Galeri Nev, Inci Eviner has taken part in numerous biennales including in Istanbul and in Busan, South Korea, in October this year. In 2009 she was awarded a residency at the MAC/VAL in Vitry-sur-Seine where she presented the New Citizen project, and showed the Harem installation at Istanbul Traversée in Lille.
For her exhibition in Room 18 of the Musée d'Art moderne de la Ville de Paris, thanks to SAM Art Projects, Inci Eviner will present a series of three installations. The first space is filled with drawings produced during her residency at Villa Raffet. Taking inspiration from current events and miscellaneous documents, this is a world that is part Bruegel, part Surrealism. It forms an antechamber, a subliminal state that leads to the vast video panorama in the next space. Fifteen metres long, like a frieze or wallpaper, it shows small figures in the act of demonstrating, dancing, moving in a burlesque or solemn way. It surrounded by a special designed sound. Produced by SAM Art Projects and shown for the first time, it uses HD picture-in-picture techniques and sets the stage for the third and final installation, Parliament.
A catalogue will be published.
