The Istanbul Museum of Modern Art, Turkey’s first private museum to organize modern and contemporary art exhibitions, was founded in 2004 and occupies an 8,000 square meter site on the shores of the Bosphorus. The Modern features exhibition space on two floors: work from the museum's permanent collection and a shop and restaurant, are located on the top floor, while temporary exhibitions are located on the lower floor, along with a cinema and art library.

Explore the work and life experiences of this prolific artist during the period 1880 to 1890. Interpret his thoughts, feelings and state of mind during his time in Arles, Saint Rémy and Auvers-Sur-Oise, the locations where he created many of his timeless masterpieces. See these works in hyper-fine detail, with special attention paid to key features, allowing you time to study colour and technique. Photographs and video have also been augmented with Van Gogh's works to demonstrate his sources of inspiration.

Synchronized to a powerful classical score, more than 3,000 Van Gogh images at an enormous scale create a thrilling display that fills giant screens, walls, columns, ceilings and even the floor - immersing entirely in the vibrant colours and vivid details that constitute Van Gogh's unique style.

On the occasion of the celebration of 400 years of diplomatic and trade relations between the Netherlands and Turkey, the Sakip Sabanci Museum in Istanbul hosts a major exhibition of Rembrandt and his contemporaries.

It is the first time that these paintings, etchings and drawings by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Frans Hals, Jan Steen, Jacob van Ruisdael, Jan Lievens and other Dutch masters from the Golden Age will be shown in Turkey.
