Cultural heritage exhibitions in Erzurum

Overview

Cultural exhibitions in Erzurum have highlighted various forms of traditional Turkish artistry and heritage.

Initially, artist Şeyma Sezer held a three-day exhibition at the Çifte Minareli Medrese, showcasing 20 large-scale works where historical scenes were painted directly onto hand-woven kilims. Her work includes depictions of figures such as Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and Ottoman sultans.

Subsequently, the Erzurum Olgunlaşma Enstitüsü launched the ‘Han Zarafeti’ (Lady's Elegance) exhibition as part of the Turkey Culture Route Festival. This showcase focused on the evolution of women's clothing from the Seljuk period to the present, featuring stylized outfits made from traditional materials like ehram and felt, alongside paintings that interpret Anatolian carpet motifs to represent human emotions.
