6th Mardin Bienali Support

Driven by our belief in the transformative power of art and education, we are delighted to support the 6th Mardin Bienali, which will take place from May 10 to June 10, 2024.

Through the personal initiative of our Founding Chairman, Emin Hitay, and institutional support of our foundation, we aim to contribute to the sixth edition of Mardin Bienali and support the cultural and artistic development of the region.

This long-term collaboration aims to increase the sustainability of the Mardin Bienali and its impact on the region.

We also aim to increase the impact and reach of the Mardin Bienali by enabling art to meet different disciplines and reach wider audiences through various events organized within the scope of the biennial.

The biennial, directed by Döne Otyam and Hakan Irmak, and curated by Ali Akay, asks questions about how we can go beyond all the artistic, political and sociological problems we are experiencing today under the title “Further Away”.
