KAIROS GALLERY

KAIROS was founded by Ezgi Yıldız and Cihan Kurt in Istanbul as a contemporary art gallery in 2022. Dissimilarly to the known and practiced gallery traditions, KAIROS is artist and production oriented, it adopts the principle of bringing a breath of fresh air to the needs of today's audience and artists instead of the conventional methods in exhibition making, event organization and art management, and brings together its represented artists who work across a wide range of mediums with the audience. With the aim to change the traditional power dynamics between the gallerist and the artist, KAIROS opens up space for constructive dialogues and collective work in behalf of accessibility. KAIROS establishes close contact with the represented artists within its structure, imagines and realizes with them. According to KAIROS, being involved in the artist's production process and the mentoring relationship established with the artist is a meaningful way to build a bridge between the audience and the creator.
