Merkür Gallery

MERKUR Gallery was established by Sabiha Kurtulmuş in 2010. With her 24 years of experience in the art market, Sabiha Kurtulmuş has supported emerging and established artists in order to shape a fresh perception and contribute with a new rhetoric to the contemporary art circle in Turkey. Working with the most significant artists of Turkey, Kurtulmuş’s  aim is to bring a new and fresh aura to Turkey's contemporary art scene by introducing the works of young artists. In the selection of young artists, the gallery considers the notions, concepts, different materials the artist employs together with the aesthetic perception of the artist’s portfolio. The gallery pays attention to the independency and authenticity of the artistic attitudes, use of different media and experimental techniques in an expressive way. The main priority of MERKUR is to welcome the innovations brought by today’s industry and technology and share it with the audience via an artistic language. MERKUR has a venue of 250 square meters at the dynamic and central location of Nisantasi, Hüsrev Gerede Street.
