MORPHOSIS STREET ART/GRAFFITI WRITING AND PAINTING EXHIBITON
What: The first indie street art exhibition of this scale in Istanbul. Local artists and stencillists include Bay Perşembe+Şebeke; Bomba Fonda; Gogo; Madcat and others. Those who can’t resist a blank wall, you see…
Why here: The venue, Banker Han, is a six-storey grandiose building in Galata that used to house bankers who lent money to the state in Ottoman times (and eventually led to its bankruptcy). Deserted ever since this dilapitated space is the perfect location for this exhibition under Street Art Istanbul. Plus it’s free.
When: Opening party starts Fri., 12 June, 6 p.m. The exhibition runs until Mon., 13 July. Open everyday until 6.30 p.m.
Where: Banker Han, Banker Sok. (Saint George Hastanesi karşısı), Galata. 0532 241 6556 veya 0533 212 4642. streetartistanbul.com.
