Often collaborating with other artists, or enlisting large groups to create «reality directed» performances and video works, Althamer has traveled around the world, staging major performative events that range from obviously constructed spectacles to more
subtle interventions like Motion Pictures, in which he hired actors to perform everyday acts, such as greeting a friend, in a
public square.
Through diverse means of expression, from installation and performance to drawing, video and
interventions in
public space, Öğüt weaves loose narratives that meander between artistic practice and social life to provoke critical consciousness and
subtle shifts in perspective.
