Rooting (Köklenme) at Galeri 77 Karaköy, Istanbul — 14 Nov 2026–9 Jan 2027

Galeri 77 inaugurates its new space in Karaköy with “Rooting” (“Köklenme”), a group exhibition that brings together one recent work by each of the gallery’s 38 artists, among them Gurgen Babayan, Daron Mouradian, Armen Gevorkian, Roman Babakhanian, Karen Arakel, Sergey Narazyan, Sedat Girgin, Erhan Coral, Hakan Gürbüzer and Bahadır Baruter. The works are arranged by the date each artist joined the gallery, so the hang reads as a timeline of Galeri 77’s history; a root-like wooden line runs through the rooms from the top floor down, and the basement holds a video and sound installation featuring the artists.
