Alongside the established fair and art week circuit in Hong Kong, the emergence of newly opened museums and cultural institutions in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan stood out prominently. The Sharjah Biennial, continuing its steady ascent, and the inaugural edition of the Bukhara Biennial were among the year\u2019s most significant highlights, the latter leaving a particularly strong impression by establishing a compelling new platform from its very first edition. Additionally, during an October visit to Paris accompanying Istanbul Modern\u2019s board members and premium members, I encountered notable developments even in a city I know well. The newly opened building of Fondation Cartier, as well as the large-scale, ambitious exhibition programs of private institutions such as Fondation Louis Vuitton and Fondation Pinault, were particularly striking. While I remain somewhat critical of Paris\u2019s increasing reliance on the private sector and luxury brands to sustain its cultural landscape, observing these transformations firsthand is undeniably instructive\u2014especially at a moment when one of the world\u2019s most important public museums, the Centre Pompidou, is preparing to close for at least five years, amid elaborate farewell ceremonies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. <span class=\"s15\">Art fairs and\/or art events you plan to prioritize in 2026\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As the curator of the 7th Mardin Biennial, set to open on 15 May, it naturally occupies the center of my focus this year. Beyond this, for over two decades I have consistently followed artistic production and cultural activity along the Mardin\u2013Diyarbak\u0131r axis. I am also eager to attend the first edition of Art Basel Qatar in Doha this February, as well as the Venice Biennale, which opens in early May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. <span class=\"s15\">For art lovers who enjoy traveling, your recommendations for art routes and\/or events to see in 2026 and beyond\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Within Turkey, the Mardin Biennial and the Baks\u0131 Museum should be high on the list for the spring\u2013summer season, particularly for those who have yet to experience them. In winter, if one can align travel plans with fair season, I would especially recommend Cape Town or Mexico City. Both destinations are far more accessible than they might initially seem\u2014particularly when weighed against the steadily rising costs of traveling in Europe. African art and the Americas continue to hold great interest for us. Given more opportunities, I would very much like to see the Taipei Biennial, which runs until March, as well as the Sydney Biennale, opening next March; both are curated by highly respected figures in the field, and the relationship these geographies have with art is both deep-rooted and historically rich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><p><strong>EM\u0130N H\u0130TAY<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><p><strong>Collector<\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/EH_Ece-Ogulturk-donusturuldugu-kaynak-jpeg-e1767092899878.webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/EH_Ece-Ogulturk-donusturuldugu-kaynak-jpeg-e1767092899878.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74239\" style=\"aspect-ratio:16\/9;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/EH_Ece-Ogulturk-donusturuldugu-kaynak-jpeg-e1767092899878.webp 1280w, https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/EH_Ece-Ogulturk-donusturuldugu-kaynak-jpeg-e1767092899878-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/EH_Ece-Ogulturk-donusturuldugu-kaynak-jpeg-e1767092899878-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/EH_Ece-Ogulturk-donusturuldugu-kaynak-jpeg-e1767092899878-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/EH_Ece-Ogulturk-donusturuldugu-kaynak-jpeg-e1767092899878-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Emin Hitay, Photo, Ece O\u011fult\u00fcrk<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. <span class=\"s15\">Art events you attended in Turkey or abroad during 2025 that left a lasting impression on you\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Art Basel Paris was one of the fairs I found most impressive this year. Within the shifting geography of art centres, and at a time when Europe has been perceived as losing momentum, Paris has once again emerged as a highly desirable hub for art. The selection of participating galleries and artists made for a compelling fair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><p class=\"s16\"><span class=\"s17\">Another event that truly excited me was the inaugural edition of the Bukhara Biennial, realised under the artistic direction of Diana Campbell and presented under the title <\/span><span class=\"s19\">Recipes for Broken Hearts<\/span><span class=\"s17\">. With the dedicated contributions and vision of Gayane Umerova\u2014Commissioner of the Biennial and Head of the Creative Economy and Tourism Department of the Presidential Administration of the Republic of Uzbekistan, as well as Chair of the Uzbekistan Art and Culture Development Foundation\u2014the biennial represented a major and rapid step toward positioning Uzbekistan as a central hub for art in Central Asia. Strengthening Tashkent while offering an entirely new artistic and touristic perspective across Uzbekistan, the biennial took its place in history as an important exhibition that revitalised Bukhara\u2019s historical and craft traditions along the Silk Road route. By forming a triangle between craft, design, and art\u2014expanded further to include gastronomy and cultural values\u2014the first Bukhara Biennial became an event I now eagerly anticipate seeing develop in future editions.<\/span><\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The 18th Istanbul Biennial was also among the biennials I was most excited to see this year, both in Turkey and internationally. Curated by Christine Tohm\u00e9 under the title Three-Legged Cat, the biennial presented a conceptual framework that focused on socio-cultural and societal issues in Istanbul and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><p class=\"s16\"><span class=\"s17\">Another highly impactful programme was the Japan trip organised with SAHA Association. It was an exceptionally comprehensive journey in terms of art and culture. In particular, the islands known as the \u201cart islands\u201d within Japan\u2019s Setouchi archipelago\u2014Inujima, Teshima, and Naoshima\u2014were deeply exciting.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"s16\"><span class=\"s17\">On Inujima, the Seirensho Art Museum and the Inujima Art House Project stood out, while on Teshima, the Teshima Art Museum\u2019s modern art collection, Lee Ufan &amp; The Valley Gallery, and <\/span><span class=\"s19\">Les Archives du C\u0153ur<\/span><span class=\"s17\"> were particularly striking. On Naoshima, the Art House Project, Ando Museum, Chichu Art Museum, and the Naoshima New Art Museum, which opened last summer, offered an important perspective on Japan\u2019s art and cultural environment, artistic production, and contemporary outlook.<\/span><\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. <span class=\"s15\">Art fairs and\/or art events you plan to prioritize in 2026\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I will try to visit the biennials and fairs listed below. I believe these events are important for understanding shifts in artistic production, transformations in social issues, and the contemporary world at large. I also prioritise fairs as research spaces\u2014opportunities to observe movements and tendencies within the art market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Art Basel Qatar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 2nd Malta Biennale<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 ARCO Madrid<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;Zona&nbsp;Maco<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Venice Biennale<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Art Basel Paris<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Frieze London<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;Sinop Bienali<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. <span class=\"s15\">For art lovers who enjoy traveling, your recommendations for art routes and\/or events to see in 2026 and beyond\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In Turkey, the Sinop Biennial, Mardin Biennial, and \u00c7anakkale Biennial will all take place this year, and I believe it is important to prioritise seeing these biennials within our own country.

In Japan, the islands of Naoshima and Teshima\u2014often referred to as \u201cart islands\u201d\u2014radically transformed the familiar museum-going experience. The architecture in these spaces withdraws almost entirely to make room for a single work, framing the visit around an intense spatial encounter rather than a circulating collection. Experiencing art as a deeply immersive spatial condition rather than a sequence of objects was profoundly impactful for me, both as a viewer and as someone who thinks through space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the most defining museum experience for me as an architect was the Simose Art Museum in Otake City, located about an hour from Hiroshima. Composed of container galleries, the building establishes a natural continuity with the surrounding port area, itself filled with containers. Without producing any excessive architectural gestures, it creates a highly intuitive and original circulation route, clearly demonstrating how architecture can generate a powerful experience through a sensitive relationship with its context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Another project from Japan that particularly caught my attention was the Tokyo Toilet Project. For me, this was less an art project than a striking demonstration of how architecture can intervene in everyday life. It showed, in very tangible terms, how even one of the most ordinary and invisible structures\u2014a public toilet\u2014can make a meaningful difference in the metropolitan public realm through thoughtful architectural intervention and its relationship with its surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Another memorable visit was the Grand Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Rather than feeling like a contemporary museum visit, it felt like walking through a continuation of Egypt\u2019s traditional architectural heritage, translated into an immense contemporary scale. The building\u2019s proportions, voids, courtyard, and interplay between open and enclosed spaces made it one of the most architecturally impactful places I have experienced in recent years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. <span class=\"s15\">Art fairs and\/or art events you plan to prioritize in 2026\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the events I am most curious about in 2026 is the AlUla Arts Festival, held in the historic oasis city of AlUla in northwestern Saudi Arabia.

Rather than treating Bukhara\u2019s architecture, craft traditions, and everyday modes of production merely as a backdrop, the biennial incorporated them directly into the process of artistic production, opening up a vibrant, reciprocal, and transformative space between local knowledge and contemporary art.&#13;\n<\/span><\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Inviting artists to collaborate with local artisans and designers pushed the biennial beyond a representational exhibition format. This approach framed production as a process unfolding over time, centred on sharing, learning, and collective thinking. Featuring works by artists from Turkey such as Hera B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f\u00e7\u0131yan and Vahap Av\u015far, the biennial brought together international artists alongside locally rooted artists, artisans, and designers, fostering relational and participatory practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Elif Uras\u2019s exhibition Ellerinde Toprak at Galerist was another compelling presentation, particularly in its focus on production processes, the visibility of women\u2019s labour, and solidarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. <span class=\"s15\">Art fairs and\/or art events you plan to prioritize in 2026\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I will try to visit the biennials and fairs listed below.

I also prioritise fairs as research spaces\u2014opportunities to observe movements and tendencies within the art market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Ceramic Brussels<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Art Basel Qatar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 2nd Malta Biennale<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 ARCO Madrid<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Art Dubai<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Venice Biennale<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Manifesta Biennale<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Art Basel Paris<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Frieze London<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Frieze Abu Dhabi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Sinopale<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. <span class=\"s15\">For art lovers who enjoy traveling, your recommendations for art routes and\/or events to see in 2026 and beyond\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe it will be particularly important to follow the rising art events in Central Asia and to witness the growing momentum of the Gulf region.

I say this without regret, as I believe that understanding what is truly good\u2014and learning to value it\u2014often requires seeing and experiencing what is not. That said, two exhibitions left a deep and lasting impression on me: Why Look at Animals at EMST, and Petrit Halilaj\u2019s An Opera Out of Time at Hamburger Bahnhof, which will continue through June 2026. The exhibition at EMST served as a powerful reminder\u2014particularly in an era when almost everyone claims the role of curator\u2014of what a truly strong curator is capable of and what curatorial responsibility entails. Beyond its scope, the exhibition also introduced me to artists I had never encountered before, expanding my knowledge alongside what I already knew. I first encountered Petrit Halilaj ten years ago through another visionary curator, Okwui Enwezor. Despite a childhood shaped by war and its many hardships, Halilaj\u2019s work demonstrates that remaining compassionate, thoughtful, generous, and playful is both possible and a conscious choice. I believe there is much to learn from artists like him\u2014not only about art, but about what it means to be human.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also worth noting that one does not always need to travel far. Hera B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f\u00e7\u0131yan\u2019s exhibition Hayalet Kuartet, which opened at Arter in recent weeks, is a show I would like to see repeatedly\u2014spending time within it and thinking through it. It holds both the calm and the force of an undercurrent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. <span class=\"s15\">Art fairs and\/or art events you plan to prioritize in 2026\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe there is broad consensus that the most significant international art event of 2026 will be the Venice Biennale. On a local level, the Mardin Biennial also stands out. I have been trying to follow both consistently for many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I am also eagerly awaiting the announcement of the artist lists for the Malta and Lyon Biennials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>While these are the first events that come to mind, I am certain that in the coming months many other exhibitions\u2014such as Simon Fujiwara\u2019s A Whole New World at MUDAM Luxembourg\u2014will capture my attention and spark a desire to visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><p class=\"s27\"><strong><span class=\"s15\">3.

If one travels to a major Western city with a developed art ecosystem during the period of a large fair or biennial, the likelihood of encountering many strong exhibitions is quite high. The global art calendar is so densely packed with biennials, exhibitions, and fairs that even dedicating every day of the year to art would not suffice. Personally, I hope to follow whatever exhibition, place, or individual\u2014new or familiar\u2014will help me rediscover the sense of excitement and love for art that I have felt gradually dulling over the years, embracing both the good and the bad as part of that process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The repetitive cycles of the same names and locations satisfy me only up to a point; breaking that pattern, or expanding beyond it, feels restorative. The most honest advice I can offer is for everyone to do the same: follow the artists, curators, exhibitions, and biennials that genuinely spark your curiosity, and explore the spaces they open up. The art world\u2014like life itself\u2014is far too vast and diverse to be confined to formulaic solutions or fixed lists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SELMA AYG\u00dcN<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><p class=\"s28\"><strong><span class=\"s19\">Art Enthusiast<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/selma-donusturuldugu-kaynak-png-e1767044216390.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"542\" src=\"https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/selma-donusturuldugu-kaynak-png-e1767044216390.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74134\" style=\"aspect-ratio:16\/9;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/selma-donusturuldugu-kaynak-png-e1767044216390.webp 1080w, https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/selma-donusturuldugu-kaynak-png-e1767044216390-600x301.webp 600w, https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/selma-donusturuldugu-kaynak-png-e1767044216390-1024x514.webp 1024w, https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/selma-donusturuldugu-kaynak-png-e1767044216390-300x151.webp 300w, https:\/\/art50.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/1999\/01\/selma-donusturuldugu-kaynak-png-e1767044216390-768x385.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Selma Ayg\u00fcn<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. <span class=\"s15\">Art events you attended in Turkey or abroad during 2025 that left a lasting impression on you\u2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>First and foremost, the 18th Istanbul Biennial captured my interest both through its choice of venues and its conceptual framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition 90\u2019lardan Beri Hal\u0131day\u0131z at SALT Beyo\u011flu was an absolute must-see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibitions curated by Anlam de Coster at Zeyrek \u00c7inili Hamam also left distinct impressions on viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the exhibitions I most enjoyed and made sure not to miss were Elif Uras and \u0130pek D\u00fcben\u2019s recent shows at Galerist.
