This is the starting point of the exhibition “Diplomatic bag low cost” that will visit different cities around the world thanks to Aecid’s ART-EX program.
“Low cost Diplomatic” is a collective exhibition of contemporary art. It manipulates the space inside a suitcase that can fit in the cabin of a budget airline, the most widely used means of transport.
The inside of the case can be seen by launching it from each of the QR codes that you will find next to it or following the itinerary of the exhibitions. The first stop will be Spain’s Cultural Centre in Santiago de Chile, where it will be opened on 28 July 2015. All passengers in transit are invited to attend this and the rest of the exhibitions.

After that Ziya Levent Aybay continued his life as an art director-designer in advertisement sector but he didn’t leave music. Volkan Diyaroglu continued his life outside of Turkey as a well known artist in Turkey and Europe.

Interview with Denis Maksimov / Bxl Connect / No:10 / October-November 2014
“AN ARTIST WANTS TO BE IMMORTAL, A KIND OF SEMI-GOD, AND TO SHAPE HIS WORLD, SOMETIMES KILLING PEOPLE WITH HIS WORKS, SOMETIMES KILLING IDEAS, SOMETIMES KILLING LINES AND POINTS OR EVEN THE TIME. IF YOU REPLACE “ARTIST” IN THAT SENTENCE WITH “POLITICIAN”, NOTHING WILL CHANGE.”
FORMATRACIA. APUNTES FENOMENOLÓGICOS DE VOLKAN DIYAROGLU / JOSE RAMON ALARCON @ MAKMA.NET (Spanish)
Formatracia se erige en el retorno expositivo a Valencia de Volkan Diyaroglu (Estambul, 1982), a modo de solo exhibition, tras sus últimas individuales de 2007 en las ya extintas Forja Arte Contemporáneo (“Delik”) y Galería Edgar Neville (“Mi Vértigo”). Desde entonces y durante un lustro y medio su obra se ha prodigado por el mapa internacional, manifestando su impronta pictórica en conspicuos países europeos, Estados Unidos, así como en su más reciente “Memory & Blood”, en Element Art Space de Singapur.
Toni Calderon about Volkan Diyaroglu / Formatracia (Spanish)
Hay innumerables ejemplos en el que el arte se convierte en parte esencial de la propia vida del artista. Esto no es algo nuevo pues ya en los años 50 del siglo pasado se convirtió en una de las características de numerosos planteamientos artísticos que terminaron eclosionando en multitud de propuestas absolutamente personales y ya no tanto encorsetadas en movimientos, istmos o grupos.
