FALL 2023-ARCH401

Although Kayseri is a developed city in terms of industry, economy, education, etc., compared to big cities, Kayseri's contemporary art scene remains limited and it is difficult for people here to show interest in this field due to the lack of contemporary art exhibitions. In order to increase the interest of local people in Kayseri in contemporary art and strengthen their bond, exhibitions with both modern and traditional clothing will be organized under the main theme of "FASHION". In order to best reflect the different periods of Kayseri, the traditional clothes of the people living in that period will be exhibited in permanent exhibitions. In order to capture contemporary art, areas will be created according to the concept of the design and collection clothes of local or out-of-town artists will be included in temporary exhibitions. These spaces will be created using elements of installation art, light, sound, found objects, sculptures and videos.  Thanks to Kayseri's geographical location and easy accessibility, artists from outside the city will be able to exhibit their clothing collections and find space for their art here. In addition, clothes that reflect the history and culture of Kayseri will attract the attention of people who followed the cultural route and came here.
