Ahali Conversations with Can Altay - A podcast by Can Altay

In this episode, we host globetrotter artist Ahmet Öğüt. With many trades in his pocket, Ahmet is a tireless people’s person as well as a hacker of sorts whose art-making competence allows him to infiltrate institutions from within to create parasitic organizations that instigate change! Ahmet Öğüt is an internationally acclaimed artist. His works often delve into topics such as religion, social norms, and politics using humor. Ahmet is the founder of the "Silent University", a roaming learning platform that aims to empower undocumented people through employing them as tutors. He is also the co-initiator of the "Code of Acquisitions" (with Burak Arikan), a watch-dog for ethical practices of art institutions, galleries and studios.
