The Cyclades Ephorate of Antiquities, in collaboration with the Italian Ministry of Culture's Directorate General of Museums and the National Roman Museum, is organizing an exhibition titled "The Moment and Eternity: Between Us and the Ancients" (L'istante e l'eternita. Tra noi e gli antichi) at the Baths of Diocletian in Rome.

A Roman Bath, which was built in the fifth century A.D. and used for 200 years, has been restored in the ancient port city Anemurium, located on a 600-hectare area in the southern province of Mersin. While the cleaning and restoration works of the floor mosaic in the dressing room of the bath continue, this year the bath started to host visitors.

Sanatorium presents Christiane Peschek's first solo show in Turkey, titled 'OASIS.' Taking its inspiration from the tradition of bathing running through all cultures of the world from Roman bath houses to Japanese onsen, hamams to the Finnish sauna and thermal baths in Central Europe, the exhibition will continue through March 13.
