Simon & Schuster İnci Eviner: Moving Across and Beyond the Line

An expansive, deeply political and poetic monograph exploring Eviner's dialogic practice with her own texts Offering an expansive visual portrait of the artist's oeuvre across media and presenting her interconnected, non-linear practice where works continuously transform, resisting rigid classifications Published to accompany an exhibition at Dirimart London from 1 September to 3 October 2026 and many other events around Europe during 2026 Text in English and Turkish İnci Eviner: Moving Across and Beyond the Line is the most comprehensive monograph to date on the Istanbul-based artist and academic, spanning her practice from early 2000s to present. Rooted in drawing yet multiplied across diverse media—video, performance, sculpture, costume, and writing—Eviner's works form a living ecosystem: interconnected, mutable, and perpetually in flux. Uncanniness emerges at the intersection of humour and violence, where rigid taxonomies collapse, and a network of shifting forms resists linearity and Cartesian logic. Deeply political, Eviner's practice does not simply address collective and socio-cultural realities but is inherently embedded within them. The figures inhabiting her universe appear and reappear across media, continually transforming while maintaining dialogic relationships with the artist herself. Featuring insightful essays by Roger Malbert and Heinz Peter Schwerfel, this richly illustrated volume unfolds Eviner's oeuvre as a constellation of doorways—each leading elsewhere, yet all rooted in the generative act of drawing. Text in English and Turkish.
