After admiring Istanbul’s remarkable historic sites, discover the talents of contemporary Turkish artists at Istanbul Modern. Opened in 2004, the gallery is located in Torphane in an enigmatic warehouse on the southern shores of the Bosphorus. The permanent exhibition includes work by Omer Kalesi, Cihat Burak and Selma Gürbüz. The Museum of Modern Art can be opened in the evenings for a private viewing of the collection with an expert curator. Consider hiring the Museum’s permanent exhibition gallery for a private gala dinner for up to 350 guests. After you’ve enjoyed the art, why not take a stroll to the nearby Tophane Mosque area and indulge in some strong Turkish coffee at one of the many street cafés.
