Istanbul Gelisim University (IGU) Gelisim Art Gallery continues to bring art lovers together with valuable works. "International Selections from Past to Future" exhibition; 33 different artists from various countries such as England, Bulgaria, America, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Russia and Slovenia participated with their works. Works produced with many different techniques such as painting, graphics, sculpture, ceramics and digital art are presented to art lovers. The exhibition, curated by Prof. Dr. Ismet Çavuşoğlu, can be visited until February 5.

“Without artistic design, a product is inadequate”

Prof. Dr. Bahri Şahin, Rector of Istanbul Gelisim University, who attended the opening ceremony, stated: “Our university evaluates art separately from other sciences. We provide positive discrimination to art. Because humanity needs art. We are trying to highlight art and social sciences alongside technical sciences. Civilization has three pillars. These social innovation, artistic innovation and technical innovation. If one does not exist, the other does not exist. Let technical scientists, artistic scientists and social scientists come together around big projects. Without artistic design, a product is missing or not complete. When I look at the works made by our artists, I see that some of them have a direct relationship with the industry. In other words, as IGU, we desire an output-based education. “We care about quality, not quantity, in every field, including art.”

Stating that all the works in the exhibition have different working styles and expressions, Curator Prof. Dr. Ismet Çavuşoğlu said, “In our exhibition, we provided a global approach by bringing what is happening in the world here and brought art lovers together here. We see technological touches in some paintings and compositions. We can say that technology and art come together. Our goal is to popularize the art culture in our university and raise it to a good level.”
