The wall was his passion. If we look at urban walls with the eyes
of Burhan Dogancay, a completely different world opens up: half -
ripped posters on rough brickwork, covered in graffiti,
scribblings, messages, signs, stickers. From this rich stock of
struct ures, signs and symbols the artist created his wall
fragments, his "Urban Walls". Dogancay (1929 - 2013) was born in
Istanbul and settled in New York in 1964, where he moved within the
art scene around Robert Rauschenberg und Jasper Johns. His subject
is the visual perception of texture, place and memory, which he
researches in serial wor ks. For his "Urban Walls" he records house
walls and facades all over the world in a variety of media, using a
wide range of materials and techniques such as photography, collage
and painting. His works are archives of past decades which capture
the spirit of the times. From the 1970s and 1980s he progresses
from these works to develop his "Ribbons" - calligraphic paintings
of poetic charm.
