MUSEUM SZTUKI ACQUIRES WORK BY SÜKRAN MORAL

Şükran Moral’s ‘Bordello’ has been acquired by Muzeum Sztuki in Łódź, Poland. Moral is one of the seminal performance artists in Turkey. Her work challenges the position of women in society, focusing in particular on violence against women or other underrepresented groups. Moral’s performances have often taken place in very diverse spaces, from brothels and hamams to mental hospitals, disrupting thus their normal function and turning them into discursive platforms for art.
