Itinerary:

The contemporary art world is changing rapidly and as the political and economic centers shift towards the East, the production of art and the creative markets are following them.

Istanbul is currently one of the cultural hot spots of Europe and it is often seen as a gateway between Western and Eastern culture, and the galleries in this city feature the work of some of the most exciting artists from Turkey and beyond.

In this walk, as we stroll through Istanbul’s coolest neighborhoods, we will get a chance to discover the booming contemporary art scene of Istanbul with the help of a local art professional.

We will start off walking on Istiklal Street and visit some of the leading art institutions in Istanbul. We will continue our way through the narrow streets of Beyoglu and find out about the hidden art galleries of Tophane and Karakoy neighborhoods.

En route, we visit the Pera Museum offering an outstanding range of diverse high-quality culture and art service. We will finish our tour at the Istanbul Museum of Modern Art, Turkey’s first private museum to organize modern and contemporary art exhibitions, was founded in 2004 and occupies an 8,000 square meter site on the shores of the Bosphorus.
