The Juried Exhibition: The Book:
A Simultaneous Project of the 9th International Istanbul Biennial went over well. We had well over 200 participants at our opening and had a fabulous time on the balcony of the Union Han. The night could not have been more perfect with the GoldenHorn serving as our backdrop to this event. And the artwork, the dialogues and the video projections juxtaposed with the Haghia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and the Galata Tower was a splendid way to close out our final project for 2005.
