Depo Istanbul has been firmly dedicated to the cultural and linguistic plurality of Anatolia and the Balkans. In numerous collaborations with local and international artists and curators, it strived to showcase artistic engagements with complex cultural and linguistic history and heritage of this geographic region, simultaneously advocating for its present-day recognition, preservation and reconciliation and providing platform and ideas for the communal future. Having established itself as a venue of intersection between artistic practice and societal research, Depo appeared as an organic choice for this exhibition’s venue.
