C24 Gallery is proud to present Hypochondriac, the first solo exhibition in the United States by Turkish artist Seçkin Pirim. On view will be a new body of work produced from a variety of materials including paper and Plexiglass. Hypochondriac will be on exhibit September 15 – October 29, 2016. An Artist Talk with Seçkin Pirim and Time Out New York art critic Paul Laster will take place on Thursday, September 15, 2016 between 4pm and 5:30 pm. They will discuss the artist’s history and current exhibition. Following the artist talk will be an Opening Reception from 6:00pm – 8:00pm.

Previously known for his neo-minimalist sculptures, Hypochondriac is a departure from Seçkin Pirim’s earlier artworks. In this new series, Pirim combines his previous methods of obsessively symmetrical and precise optical effects with its exact opposite: a spontaneous and uncalculated style of production. Pirim explores his personal struggle with hypochondria, the constant worry of having a serious illness, through his art practice. He questions whether or not the notion of ‘the distorted’ or ‘immaculate’ can be described as diseased. Ultimately, Pirim accepts this duality as his own, without recourse or internal criticism. With this artistic process the artist examines himself and his art through a completely unfiltered lens.
