The gallery is pleased to announce the representation of Ali Kazma and Alfredo Jaar. Presented simultaneously, these announcements reflect the gallery’s ongoing commitment to working with artists whose practices have been developed through sustained research, long-term institutional engagement, and international exhibition histories.
Ali Kazma (Istanbul, Turkey, 1971) is a lens-based media artist living and working in Paris. Questioning social organisation and the value of human activity, he highlights the relationship between the visible and the invisible aspects of reality by looking closely at the management of labour, time, bodies, gestures, space and processes. Kazma’s attentive eye collects specific activities in a broad range of economic, industrial, scientific, medical, social and artistic spheres.
The artist, who represented Turkey at the 55th Venice Biennale - Pavilion of Turkey in 2013, had a comprehensive solo exhibition at Jeu de Paume, Paris in 2017. Ali Kazma’s other solo exhibitions include Istanbul Modern Museum (2025), The Image Center (Toronto, 2025), Nouveau Musée National de Monaco (2023), MUNTREF (Buenos Aires, 2018), Arter (Istanbul, 2015), Hirshhorn Museum (Washington, 2010).

Alfredo Jaar (Santiago, Chile, 1956) is an artist, architect, and filmmaker whose practice spans more than four decades and is marked by a rigorous and uncompromising engagement with the world. Working across photography, film, installation, and new media, Jaar develops hybrid artistic strategies to address urgent socio-political realities and the ethical limits of representation.
His work has been shown extensively around the world. He has participated in the Biennales of Venice (1986, 2007, 2009, 2013), Sao Paulo (1987, 1989, 2010, 2021) as well as Documenta in Kassel (1987, 2002). In May 2026, Alfredo Jaar will be presenting his first solo exhibition at Galeria Francisco Fino. More about the artist
