On November 6, an exhibition titled “NORARALIK,” bringing together artists from Armenia and Turkey, opened in Yerevan.
Globalinfo.az reports that the exhibition’s name is formed by combining the Armenian word “nor” and the Turkish word “aralık.”
It symbolizes the idea of creating new connections between two languages, cultures and societies. The exhibition reflects relations between the two peoples, historical memory and the possibilities for dialogue through art.
The works on display address relations between Armenia and Turkey and explore issues of historical memory, cultural differences, mutual understanding and coexistence. Through various artistic means, the artists seek to present the possibilities for building new connections between the two societies.
“NORARALIK” was organized under the coordination of Nihat Özdal and in cooperation with the Humanitarian Research Institute named after Ashot Hovannisian. The initiative was carried out with the support of the European Union, with the participation of the Hrant Dink Foundation’s Armenia-Turkey Travel Fund and the Diyarbakır Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
