Would you like to meet interesting personalities from Istanbul’s past? And what kind of characters do you think would exist in a fantastical Istanbul of the future? We study the futuristic works of the exhibition inspired by Byzantine times and explore the shapes that make up domes, arches, and thick fortress walls. Next, we use our collection of shapes and create fantastic characters. This workshop allows us to integrate cultural heritage items with our imagination and develop our creativity and artistic skills.

When regarding the paintings of Istanbul by western painters, Golden Horn has a distinctive place and value. This body of water that separates the Topkapı Palace and the Historical Peninsula, in which monumental edifices are located, from Galata, where westerners and foreign embassies dwell, is as though an interpenetrating boundary.
When Karl XII of Sweden was defeated by Tsar Peter the Great of Russia in 1709, he fled to the Ottoman Empire and settled in Bender with his entourage for five years.
The Bosphorus, which divides the city from north to south, separates two continents, renders Istanbul distinct for western painters, offers the most picturesque spectacles for western artists.
