Istanbul gets a new art and culture venue

ISTANBUL

The new Summart Art Center has been opened in Istanbul’s Seyrantepe neighborhood.

Istanbul now has one more independent contemporary art center, Summart.

Summart, which opened on Sept. 30 as an independent and non-profit foundation in the Seyrantepe neighborhood of the city, is a new platform for visual arts, music and literature, a meeting point that aims to bring together art lovers with national and international artists, musicians, collectors, curators, critics, academics, galleries, museums, art foundations, writers and journalists.

Summart also aims to organize at least one international cultural art project every year at its 500 square-meter facility. 

While presenting a balanced and harmonious synthesis of art, literature, music and philosophy, Summart also intends to become a space where guests can escape from their daily hectic routines, relax and spend quality time.
