Each year, around 100 young artist candidates are selected from approximately 1,500 applications through the committee’s evaluation to have their works exhibited.

Aiming to support new graduates in their transition from graduation to professional art careers, to provide equal visibility and networking opportunities that give momentum and direction to their careers, BASE shines a light on Türkiye’s new generation of artists. It also serves as a platform for galleries, collectors, art enthusiasts, and creative industries to discover young talents. Over the past 8 years, BASE has introduced the works of nearly 1,000 new graduates from all over Türkiye to art audiences for the first time.

The 2025 edition of BASE, the ninth in total, will be held under the main sponsorship of Trendyol Art, with co-sponsorship from Jumbo, KTSM (Kale Design and Art Center), and TEB Private Banking.
