Minister Bayraktar attends opening of Hane calligraphy exhibition in Moscow
Türkiye’s Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Alparslan Bayraktar attended the opening of the Hane calligraphy exhibition at the Moscow Yunus Emre Institute. Organized by the Albayrak Group, the exhibition will be open to visitors until October 30.
The Hane Islamic art exhibition, highlighting cultural cooperation between Türkiye and Russia, opened to visitors at the Moscow Yunus Emre Institute. Alparslan Bayraktar, Türkiye’s Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, also attended the opening ceremony.
Organized by the Albayrak Group, the exhibition was held at the institute in cooperation with Türkiye’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism and the Moscow Yunus Emre Institute. Türkiye’s Ambassador to Moscow Tanju Bilgiç, Moscow Yunus Emre Institute Director Ersin Akbulut, Albayrak Media General Manager Abdullah Hanönü, embassy staff and art enthusiasts attended the ceremony.
Quranic verses interpreted through calligraphy
Hane features works prepared by calligraphers in different writing styles and compositions. The works, which transform Quranic verses into pieces of art, bring outstanding examples of the centuries-old calligraphy tradition to art enthusiasts in Moscow.
Alparslan Bayraktar said the exhibition focused on the theme of family and was therefore significant. Bayraktar said that, at a time when family and family education were prominent issues in Türkiye, efforts were also being carried out in Russia to strengthen the institution of the family, adding that the exhibition’s theme was meaningful for both countries.
Bayraktar said cooperation between Türkiye and Russia continued not only in politics, the economy and energy, but also in culture and the arts. He said the exhibition contributed to helping the Russian public become familiar with Türkiye’s values.
“Hane is more than four walls”
Moscow Yunus Emre Institute Director Ersin Akbulut said they had been carrying out initiatives since 2018 to help Türkiye and Russia get to know each other better through culture and the arts.
Describing the Hane exhibition as one of the most important events, Akbulut said, “Hane, meaning home, is actually more than just four walls. It is where people’s roots and memories lie, and where they entrust themselves. Every work carries the master’s patience, the elegance of tradition and the quiet refinement of civilization.”
Hane arrives in Moscow after Türkiye and Europe
Albayrak Media General Manager Abdullah Hanönü said they had been preparing exhibitions dedicated to the arts of calligraphy and illumination under different themes for 12 years. Hanönü said they contributed to preserving and promoting these art forms around the world, adding that they also supported the training of new calligraphers.
Hanönü said the Hane exhibition opened this year at Tophane-i Amire in Istanbul with the participation of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. He said the exhibition was visited by 100,000 art enthusiasts in approximately one month.
The exhibition, which also met art enthusiasts in different cities across Türkiye, opened in Russia following invitations from abroad after exhibitions in France and Spain. Hanönü said they aimed for Hane to contribute to the development of cultural ties between Türkiye and Russia.
Following the opening, guests were served refreshments from Turkish cuisine. The Hane exhibition will be open to visitors at the Moscow Yunus Emre Institute until October 30.
