Founded by Aslı Sümer in 2005, .artSümer has positioned itself as a dynamic space for contemporary art that discusses present-day issues through a universal language and a unique approach, fostering meaningful connections between artists and audiences.
The gallery’s roster includes local and international artists who work across a wide array of media representative of contemporary artistic expression. The artists’ practices reflect contemporary developments in art, and they are as varied as painting, drawing, installation, photography, video, and new media, often putting diverse disciplines into dialogue with one another. Although different in form, they all fundamentally share a similarly poetic, thought-provoking, and playful outlook which collectively contributes to the distinct conceptual integrity of .artSümer.
In addition to organizing regular exhibitions for its represented artists, .artSümer places significant value on making space for independent and up-and-coming artists who are not formally represented by a gallery and whose work aligns with the distinctive vision of .artSümer.
