As part of the My City project a group of international artists, writers, curators and museum professionals whose work relates to the subject of public art will meet for the symposium “Art and Public Space: May Symposium” to be held in Istanbul. The conversation will cover concerns and ideas about temporary monuments and the value of public squares, the production of new public cultural spaces, unauthorised public interventions and public art biennials.
The two-part symposium will take place on consecutive Saturdays - the 8th and 15th May.
My City has been conceived by British Council together with local partners Anadolu Kültür and Platform Garanti Contemporary Art Centre. The project is funded by the European Commission under Civil Society Dialogue: Cultural Bridges Programme and led by the British Council in Istanbul.
