Caixaforum Exhibition: Contemporary Turkish Art

The CaixaForum has organized a contemporary art exhibition that exposes works from today´s most prominent Turkish artists. For the general public Turkish art and culture is generally associated—in many cases on a very superficial level—with that which is Middle Eastern, bizarre and antique. This exhibition is a breath of fresh air, one that reveals contemporary Turkish art as influenced by Western culture, particularly French expressionism and American abstract painting. The exhibition lasts until May 30^th and is open every day from 10 a.m. to 20:00 p.m.—entrance is free so go explore! Click here for more information.
