10th Edition of Contemporary Istanbul was tremendous!

The 10th edition of Contemporary Istanbul presented amazing artworks of both international and national artists and had a record number of visitors this year. During my visit, I had a chance to meet the nice people of Lazardies Gallery UK. They were very welcoming and had a great booth, displaying some of the great works of Bansky, Miaz Brothers, Ian Francis, Todd James, Oliver Jeffers and many others. One of their nicest members Victoria gave me all the details of these beautiful Works.
