Interdisciplinary Work and Collaborative Artistic Production at Sinopale—An International Perspective on Participatory Art Production
Online Lecture with Prof. T. Melih Görgün during Berlin Art Week 2026
Prof. T. Melih Görgün is an artist, curator, and founder of Sinopale—the International Sinop Biennial, which is considered one of the world’s most significant examples of participatory biennial formats. In his lecture, he explores how collaborative artistic production models can function beyond established structures. Drawing on his many years of experience in Istanbul, Sinop, and Berlin, he asks: How can participatory and interdisciplinary curatorial practices succeed in reaching new audiences—and what can we learn from international approaches?
German spoken language. Questions and comments in spoken English are welcome.
The lecture is part of a three-part lecture series at the nGbK Pavilion in Hellersdorf and focuses on the topic “Expanding Audiences & Community Building Through Cross-Collaboration.”
