Cigdem Ozturk, Xavier Satorra / 2008

For over two (2006 - 2008) years we work as Consultants and Coordinators for Karsilasma, an Arts and Culture Exhibit from Turkey.

The main idea was to uphold a dialog and a knowledge relationship between two different cultures and societies who share a common heritage, The Mediterranean.

The Exhibit was intended to be annual, alternating each year within Barcelona and Istanbul, promoting an artistic and creative exchange of people within cities and countries. Its finality was to overcome traditional stereotypes, bringing up new concepts and modern realities.
