The Nudes of Istanbul

“The Nudes of Istanbul” is a group exhibition accompanied by an English-language photo book documenting a fourteen-year collective practice of artistic nude photography in Istanbul.

The exhibition features the works of 14 Turkish photographers—five women—as well as texts by three model-authors.

The works were created in Istanbul using real bodies, real light, curator-guided studio practice, and explicit consent.
