Istanbul's Tophane-i Amire Culture and Arts Center

A retrospective exhibition by Hungarian-French artist Victor Vasarely began on Feb. 2 in Istanbul's Tophane-i Amire Culture and Arts Center with the contributions of Arkas Holding. 

Vasarely is renowned as the "grandfather" and leader of the op art movement, a style of visual art that uses optical illusions. 

A new exhibition opened on April 6 at Istanbul's Tophane-i Amire Culture and Arts Center sheds light on 800-year-old shared history of Turks and Armenians in Istanbul and Anatolia.
