Furthermore, as part of the learning programs of the Türkiye İş Bankası Painting and Sculpture Museum, we are opening special selections from the İş Bankası Artworks Collection to visitors throughout Anatolia through 'Art for Everyone: Anatolian Exhibitions,' which we have implemented. We are delighted by the enthusiastic and meticulously prepared selections we have received."
