Konya Metropolitan Mayor Uğur İbrahim Altay visited three distinguished exhibitions that opened to art enthusiasts during the Seb-i Arus week.
Mayor Altay noted that a series of remarkable exhibitions have been opened as part of the 752nd International Commemoration Ceremony of Rumi’s Union with the Divine, held this year under the theme “Time for Serenity.” He emphasized that the Seb-i Arus week is unfolding with rich cultural and artistic events.
Mayor Altay stated that they visited three valuable exhibitions: Telamiz-i Konevî–5 prepared by calligrapher Hüseyin Öksüz and his students; the Baki Oğraş Calligraphy Collection presented within the Dârülhat Exhibitions; and a selection of calligraphy, illumination, miniature, and marbling works created by the instructors of the Andelib Art Workshop.
He added, “We had the opportunity to closely observe these remarkable works that reflect the elegance of our art. We extend our thanks to all the artists who contributed. I also invite all residents of Konya to visit these distinguished exhibitions opened in our city during the Seb-i Arus week.”
The “Baki Oğraş Calligraphy Collection,” prepared as part of the Darulhat Exhibitions at Meydan Houses, along with the mixed exhibition featuring calligraphy, illumination, miniature, and marbling works by the instructors of the Andelib Art Workshop, will remain open to visitors until December 31.
