Gregor Turk
"Choke II: Palk Strait (India & Sri Lanka)" - ceramic - map - Louise Nevelson

2021

About the Item

This ceramic wall sculpture features a topographic map in black and white. Gregor is inspired by the works of Martin Puryear, James Turrell, Louise Bourgeois, Barbara Hepworth, Christo, Claes Oldenburg, Louise Nevelson, Robert Arneson and Brancusi. As a self-proclaimed topophiliac, Gregor Turk is known for ceramic sculptures, photography, mixed-media constructions and various public art installations, with the most recent at the Metropolitan Library in Atlanta, Georgia. Turk focuses on the fundamental qualities of mapping – “the mysteriousness, inherent biases, cultural authoritativeness, and ability to simultaneously represent and distort reality.” His passion is not necessarily the actual geographic information, but rather what that information tells us about ourselves as individuals and as a culture. Turk received an education from both Rhodes College and Boston University and between degrees served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Liberia, West Africa. His work has been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions at institutions such as: The Museum of Contemporary Art Georgia, Delaware Center of Contemporary Arts, Ace Art, and Downey Museum of Art.
