The new stop of TFMD's Turkey Beauties Exhibition, which will visit 16 different cities with Culture Road Festivals, one of the most important cultural organizations of Türkiye, is Samsun, where Atatürk started the struggle for independence.
The Beauties of Türkiye Exhibition, which will be exhibited at Samsun Tütüncü Pier between 8-16 June, met with the citizens of Samsun. The exhibition, which included 39 different photographs taken by 31 master photographers and selected by TFMD, was previously presented to the public in more than twenty countries, from Germany to the USA, from Russia to South Africa, from India to Zambia, from Qatar to Argentina.
SELECTION FROM THE BEAUTY OF TURKEY
In the "Press Photographs of the Year" competition, which has been organized by the Turkish Photojournalists Association for 39 years, more than 5 thousand works participate in the "Turkish Beauties" category, which has been added as a separate competition since 2018 to contribute to the promotion of the country. The frames selected from the huge archive of photographs that won awards in the competition, after being transported to different cities of the world with different selections, were moved to the Turkey Culture Road Festivals this year, which managed to combine art, culture and history in a single point.
CONTINUES TO DECORATE CULTURE ROADS
Referring to the contribution of the Culture Road Festivals organized by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism to bringing Turkey's visual heritage to different regions, Rıza Özel, President of the Turkish Photojournalists Association, said, "The Beauties of Turkey Exhibition has been presented to the public in 20 different countries so far to introduce the visual beauties we have. Thanks to the Culture Road Festivals, this time it will meet our citizens in many cities in 7 different regions of our country. After Adana, Şanlıurfa and Bursa, this time we will take photos reflecting these beauties." "We bring it together with the people of Samsun," he said.
