Note
GAR, 1995 yılında Sanart’ın (Türkiye’de Görsel Sanatları Destekleme Derneği) “Tabular ve Sanat Sempozyumu” çerçevesinde, sanatçı Selim Birsel, Vahap Avşar, Claude Leon ve Füsun Okutan’ın girişimiyle Ankara Garı’nda açıldı. Sergide yer alan işler, “toplumun moralini bozduğu” gerekçesiyle açılışın ertesi günü gar yönetimi tarafından toplatıldı. - GAR was part of the Taboos and Art symposium organized by Sanart (the Association of Support for Visual Arts in Turkey) at the Ankara Railway Station in 1995, and was a collective initiative of Selim Birsel, Vahap Avşar, Claude Leon and Füsun Okutan. The works in the exhibition were removed by the Station Directorate a day after opening, purportedly because they “demoralized society”.
