Are you planning similar projects to the Bilkent Art Street?
The Bilkent Art Street is my first and most important project.
In my opinion, this project should be presented everywhere by the
talented hands of professional gallerists. In this initiative, the aim is
to make art endearing, reachable, and a part of daily life. RC is the
general name of our corporate roof. Under this roof, our different
projects with various contents and layouts, are being implemented.
We are providing gallery service in many venues thanks to Bilkent
Art Street. In addition to Bilkent Art Street, under the roof of RC
Art Gallery, we have other galleries such as Panora by RC, Fun &
Art by RC and Dedeman Art by RC. This last project in particular,
Dedeman Art by RC, is currently presented in Park Dedeman Levent
Hotel and is scheduled to be spread across the country. This concept
of displaying art in hotels, much like a chain of hotel galleries, is the
first idea of its kind in Turkey. We hold the record for most art auctions
in all of Turkey, with 82 auctions in 5 years. At these auctions, we
practice an affordable pricing policy as well as a strategic picking of
appropriate pieces. Thanks to this, we’ve managed to flourish in the
eyes of art lovers and people who desire to be collectors. Before us, the
needs of these people were mostly neglected.
Bilkent Sanat Sokağı’nın benzerleri olacak mı?
Bilkent Sanat Sokağı benim ilk ve en önemli projem. Bana göre
bu proje, ehil ellerde ve profesyonel galericilerce her yerde uygulanabilmeli. Burada amaç sanatı sevdirmek, ulaşılabilir kılmak ve sanatla
yaşamaktır. RC, bizim kurumsal çatımızın genel adıdır. Bu çatı altında
içeriği ve yerleşimine göre farklı projelerimiz uygulanmaktadır. Bilkent Sanat Sokağı’ndaki birden çok salonda galericilik hizmeti sunmaktayız. Bilkent Sanat Sokağı dışında RC Art Gallery bünyesinde
Panora by RC, Fun & Art by RC ve Dedeman Art by RC galerilerimiz de mevcut. Dedeman Art by RC projemiz, şu an Park Dedeman
Levent Oteli’nde uygulanmakta olup aşama aşama tüm yurda yayacağız. Otel galeri zinciri şu an Türkiye’deki ilk uygulamadır. 5 yılda
82 müzayede ile Türk müzayedeciliğinde kırılamayacak bir rekorun
sahibiyiz. Bu müzayedelerdeki uygun fiyatlama ve doğru eser seçimi
ile bugüne kadar ihmal edilmiş resim sanatını seven ve koleksiyoner
olmak isteyen kitleyi ortaya çıkardık.
AT AUCTIONS, WE PRACTICE AN AFFORDABLE
PRICING POLICY AS WELL AS A STRATEGIC
PICKING OF APPROPRIATE PIECES.
