The ancient cities of Sagalassos will be explored anew with a visit from prominent figures of the contemporary Turkish art scene. Bozlu Art Project’s new exhibit, For Sagalassos, seeks to engage the art world’s interest in this ancient city.
In this year’s themed summer exhibition, which has by now become an annual tradition, Bozlu Art Project chose to focus on Sagalassos. As well as looking once more at these lands that have been inhabited since Antiquity, the seven artists in this exhibit have also come together to shed light on the past with guidance from the Sagalassos Foundation. Concurrent with the exhibition is a social responsibility project that has as its goal the renovation of the Roman baths of Sagalassos. The exhibition and project features artworks inspired by visits to Sagalassos by artists Murat Germen, Selma Gürbüz, Kazım Karakaya, Murat Morova, Seyhun Topuz, Utku Varlık and Semih Zeki.
