Ornamentation Gathering
April 24 – 30, 2009
In order to contribute to the development of ornamentation, one of the important İslamic arts, and to ensure that it is known, loved and practiced by more people, we organized a series of events as part the Ornamentation Gathering, including a symposium with the participation of experts and artists, an exhibition of the works created by 43 ornamentation artists, workshops for exchange of experience and a remembrance ceremony where we remembered the decedent ornamentation artists. The traditional “Silver Tulip” award of the Association of Traditional Arts was presented to Cahide Keskiner. We also published the works and proceedings of the gathering into a book with the title “Book of Ornamentation Gathering”.
