- Galery Information
- In order to promote different cultural expressions in art and to introduce them to a larger audience internationally, Contemporary Istanbul is focusing on art from the countries of the neighboring regions. In this context, it is making greater room for artists from the Middle East and the Balkans, while initiating this year a new country-based section for the appreciation of art-lovers. In its first year, the "New Horizons" program will host Syria. Syrian artists are attracting attention and acclaim by blending together traditional elements specific to their country with contemporary forms of expression.
