ISTANBUL

A work by Seval Özcan Ata

In collaboration with Belgian designers and artists group Het LABO, the Marmara University Fine Arts Faculty is hosting an exhibition titled “CuriosiTIES: A Curious Look on Ties.”

The exhibition, featuring 129 artists, designers and groups, is curated by Het LABO co-founder Patrick Reuvis.

For more than 25 years, Het LABO has brought together designers and artists from various countries and cultures, inviting them to participate in wayward expositions and offering the opportunity to engage in a dialogue on day-to-day life.

“CuriosiTIES” pays tribute to the tie, which finds itself close to extinction nowadays. The first exhibition was organized in Belgium in 2014. It will be on display at the university’s Sultanahmet Cumhuriyet Museum through Feb. 28.
