Guided Story

Feel the vibrant energy of modern art as you gaze at the colorful, mosaic-like building ahead. Did you know its facade is made of over 36,000 ceramic rods? They glimmer in the sunlight, giving the museum a lively texture. Behind you, the Türken Gate stands as another highlight in this art district. Inside, you'll find one of the largest collections of works by the renowned artist Cy Twombly. His distinctive handwriting and color compositions are a marvel. Pay special attention to the monumental piece 'Lepanto,' which covers an entire wall with its bold colors. Visiting here is like wandering through the minds of 20th and 21st-century artists.
