Ahmet Ögüt’s multidisciplinary and conceptual practice prods cultural norms, and his projects combine criticality with humor. He often collaborates outside the art world in order to “create shifts in the perception of the common.” Ögüt's work has been exhibited at the New Museum, Asia Society, Stedelijk Museum, and Nam-Seoul Museum of Art, as well as in the Liverpool, Istanbul, and Berlin Biennials. Ögüt co- represented Turkey at the 53rd Venice Biennale. He is the recipient of numerous awards, including a Visible Award for his project The Silent University, an autonomous knowledge-exchange platform by and for refugees, asylum seekers, and migrants.
