Borusan Contemporary functions as a multi-platform program of exhibitions, events, educational activities, new commissions, and site-specific installations, all rooted in the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection.These activities are defined by their specific focus on media arts broadly defined, i.e. artists who work with time, light, technology, video, software and beyond. Most of the program takes place at the Haunted Mansion in Istanbul, and co-exists with the offices of Borusan Holding, in essence creating a unique art center within an office paradigm. The entire building including the galleries, office space, cafe, ArtStore, and outdoor terraces with breathtaking views of the Bosphorus are open to the public on the weekends.
