GriZine: #StreetArtistanbul on Instagram

GriZine started the #StreetArtistanbul movement on Instagram in order to embrace street art of Istanbul and to archive the works of street art, which are on the walls today, but may disappear tomorrow. At the beginning of summer 2012, there will be an exhibition with the photographs that are archived at grizine.com/StreetArtistanbul.

Nowadays, an exhibition takes place around the city in Istanbul. The exhibition is there but the subjects of the exhibit are inexistent; they are ghosts of the city: the buildings that were demolished either by human hand or by catastrophes.
The project that is supported by the Istanbul 2010 European Capital of Culture Agency, opens the destructions and reconstructions in the city to discussion through 12 selected buildings. These buildings, that do not exist anymore, are selected from different historical eras of Istanbul considering different destruction causes and they form the framework of the exhibition.
