Longing

Hopes, dreams, realities peculiar to megacity Istanbul.
How do they become visible in public sphere and private life?

LONGING exhibition consists of two installations:
German TV journalist Gunnar Köhne’s 26 video portraits and Swiss photographer Robert Huber’s 12 photographs.
The social, cultural and spatial identities portrayed by both Köhne and Huber during years working in Turkey provide insightful records from the outsider's perspective.

Curation + Exhibition Design: Oya Sönmez

LONGING exhibition is supported by the Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia, Goethe-Institut and the Consulate General of Switzerland.
