Füsun Onur: Retrospective
16 Sep 2023 — 28 Jan 2024 at Museum Ludwig
· Cologne
Museum Ludwig in Cologne presents a major retrospective dedicated to Füsun Onur, one of Turkey's most significant contemporary artists. The exhibition brings together works spanning her long career, offering an in-depth look at her distinctive approach to installation, sculpture, and assemblage — a practice marked by delicacy, narrative imagination, and a deeply personal visual language.
Füsun Onur has long worked at the intersection of memory, time, and space, creating environments that invite quiet contemplation. This retrospective at Museum Ludwig provides a rare opportunity to experience the full arc of her artistic development in a major European museum context.
