Yapı Kredi Kültür Sanat Yayıncılık

It might strike you as strange that a bank would have its own cultural centre and arts-book publishing house, but such things are relatively normal in Turkey. More surprising still, perhaps, is that the exhibitions here, though eclectic, are impressive. The gallery’s two rooms usually host an odd but interesting balance of archaeology (text-heavy and educational) and photographic or contemporary art.

Towering over Galatasaray Sq, this sleek cultural centre affiliated with a major Turkish bank stages art exhibitions, hosts classical-music concerts, and is home to a research library of books on arts and culture. The light-filled exterior staircase overlooking İstiklal Caddesi is a popular spot for selfies.
