About the Artist

Born in Istanbul in 1956, Bubi (David Hayon) studied psychology and anthropology at Istanbul University before turning to painting as a self-taught artist. He is known for his "Cage" structures, in which painted cords of fabric and rolled canvases are interlaced into horizontal and vertical weaves — works that carry the traditional canvas into relief and into the three-dimensional object, constituting an entirely original language. The artist lives and works in Istanbul.
