According to a statement made by the museum, the exhibition, which displays works by nine artists, takes the audience beyond spatial boundaries and gets them to unite with nature.

The open-air exhibition on Baksı Hill features works by Erdal Duman, Günnur Özsoy, Hüsamettin Koçan, İbrahim Koç, Kemal Tufan, Mike Berg, Nermin Er, Osman Dinç and Yunus Tonkuş.

The second exhibition, which features projects deemed worthy of the "Anatolian Awards," handed out for the first time last year, provides a collective view on the works that are inspired by and add value to Anatolia. It also aims to present new proposals to civil society and local governments.

The works by the winners of the Anatolian Awards, realized by the Baksı Culture and Arts Foundation in order to draw attention to the productions that contribute to the common identity of Anatolia, are exhibited at the Depot Museum.

Speaking about the "Sculpture in the Barren" exhibition, the founder of the Baksı Museum, Professor Hüsamettin Koçan said, "No matter how challenging the conditions we have, we accept it as a human experience and continue to produce new works. This time, Baksı's barren hill, a place that has an important place in my childhood memories and has remained unchanged for 65 years, is hosting our works."
