Engin Kafadar: Aklımdan Çıkanlar 2 at Galeri Selvin, Istanbul — 15–31 Oct 2026

Galeri Selvin opens its new season in Arnavutköy with Aklımdan Çıkanlar 2 (roughly “What Came Out of My Mind, 2”), the second chapter of Istanbul-born artist and creative director Engin Kafadar’s personal memory archive. Drawn from some two decades of sketches, notes, doodles and thought fragments in line and colour, the show is presented not as a set of finished works but as a visual diary of how ideas form, change and stay unfinished.
