The MERKUR Gallery was established by Sabiha Kurtulmuş in 2010. 24 years of experience in the art field has given her, and to many well-known artists today, an opportunity to direct the perception of art and to create a new discourse, by gaining an officialism in the art world. Working with Turkey's most important artists, Sabiha Kurtulmuş's priority was to create a new and fresh atmosphere in art environments in Turkey, and to bring young artists together with art lovers. MERKUR is an art organization that creates new spaces within the gallery for young artists. In the process of incorporating young artists into our organization, as a gallery, the concepts, use of different media and aesthetic perception in the portfolios of the artists are taken into consideration. While the works of young artists coexist with originality and reliability, their works produced with experimental techniques using various media are exhibited in an effective way to make an impression. The main goal of MERKUR gallery with its young artists is: through artistic language to bring together today's technology and industry with the audience in a way open to innovations.
