Esoteric Illusions in the Wind of the Hammer marks the return of Mehmet Aksoy, following five years of seclusion, with his remarkable, unique aesthetic. This show can be regarded as a programme highlight for Anna Laudel Contemporary, which opened recently in ​the old finance district of the late Ottoman Empire in Karaköy, within a historic building comprising a vast exhibition space spanning five floors​. An artist at the height of his career, ​Mehmet Aksoy​ is considered one of the most creative and inventive sculptors working within and beyond Turkey’s borders. His unique public realm sculpture projects are displayed in cities across Europe, with a particular prevalence in Berlin, Germany. Mehmet Aksoy is renowned also for the spiritual themes and content of his artworks, reflecting his individual sculptural imagination and metaphorical expressiveness.
