The 19th edition of Contemporary Istanbul, which brings together galleries, artists and art lovers from all around the world in Istanbul, opened on Oct. 22.

The third edition of the CI Bloom contemporary art fair will meet the audience at Lütfi Kırdar Congress and Exhibition Center Rumeli Halls on April 26 and 28.

Organized by Contemporary Istanbul, 24 contemporary art galleries, along with five institutions and initiatives, showcase 568 artworks by 267 artists at the CI Bloom.

With a focus on the growth of contemporary art in Türkiye, the art fair CI Bloom will organize its second edition at the Lütfi Kırdar Convention and Exhibition Center from May 31 to June 4.

Organized by Contemporary Istanbul, the event aims to be a meeting point for the nonprofit creative industries with an expanded program this year.

Contemporary Istanbul, Turkey's leading art fair and the first international art event since the city went into lockdown, is set to kick off today in a significant new location, Tersane Istanbul, a venue that is expected to become one of the new landmarks of the Turkish metropolis.

Contemporary Istanbul (CI) will present its 16th edition in a new location, Tersane Istanbul, from Oct. 7 to 10.

The fair will bring contemporary art to one of Istanbul's most important heritage sites, following a major regeneration project to breathe new life into the historic Haliç Shipyard and the Golden Horn district.

The 15th edition of Contemporary Istanbul (CI) will take place with a VIP preview on June 1 and 2, followed by general admission between June 3 and 6 at the Rumeli Hall of the Lütfi Kırdar Convention and Exhibition Center.

Contemporary Istanbul's (CI) new virtual initiative "Virtual Contemporary Istanbul" was launched at an online press conference held on Dec. 16. The 15th edition of the event will be previewed on Dec. 19 and 20 and on general view between Dec. 21 and Jan. 6, 2021 as a virtual fair.

The "Istanbul The Lights" project, which has been organized by the Contemporary Istanbul Foundation with the support of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, will be realized from Dec. 7 to Jan. 3.

It is a fact that Turkey's growing arts and culture area may become its most important soft power, according to Ali Güreli, founder and chairman of Contemporary Istanbul.

This year, the 12th edition of the Contemporary Istanbul art fair has been opened to visitors. At the opening, I personally witnessed the immense interest of art lovers in the fair.
