“WITHOUT ARTISTIC DESIGN, A PRODUCT IS MISSING”
Participating in the opening ceremony, Rector of Istanbul Gelişim University Prof. Dr. Bahri Şahin said, “Our university evaluates art separately from other sciences; We provide positive discrimination to art. Because humanity needs art. We are trying to highlight art and social sciences alongside technical sciences. Civilization has three pillars. These; social innovation, artistic innovation and technical innovation. If one doesn't exist, the other doesn't exist. We say; Let technical scientists, artistic scientists and social scientists come together around big projects. Without artistic design, a product is missing, not complete. When I look at the works made by our artists; I see some of them having a direct relationship with the industry. In fact, we say let's bring the artists to the field. In other words, as IGU, we desire an output-based education. Including art; "We care about quality, not quantity, in every field," he said.
Curator Prof. stated that the working style and expression of all the works in the exhibition are different. Dr. İsmet Çavuşoğlu said, “In our exhibition, we provided a global approach by bringing what is happening in the world here and brought art lovers together here. We see technological touches in some paintings and compositions. We can say that technology and art come together. "Our goal is to popularize the art culture in our university and raise it to a good level," he said.
