To the world of objects and other areas'I gathered the old and new works like a house in the spaces of Gallery Apel.5 rooms in the gallery are arranged as the living room, the dinning room, the bedroom, the winter garden and the cellar.This exhibit is an introspective rather than a retrospective.

According to me, the artist always has to look forward or only s/he can watch to her/himself, in order to do introspection.Selim BirselBirsel's selected solo and joint exhibits;'Floor Puzzle' Bir Dükkan:Sanat Mekany (2001), 'Drawings and Objects' Nowa Oficyna Gallery Gdansk, Poland (2000), 'Invitation' Oda:Bir Sanat Mekany, Istanbul (2000), 'Early Spring' Nikolaj Contem.
