The Turkish Cultural Foundation (TCF) will participate in the 18th Annual International Sculpture Objects & Functional Art Fair - SOFA Chicago 2011, which will be held at the Chicago Navy Pier Festival Hall between Nov. 4 and 6.

The TCF will be among over 70 presentations from the United States and across the world.

As one of the world’s leading fairs of contemporary art and design, SOFA attracts thousands of gallery and museum representatives, discerning collectors and prospective buyers each year. TCF will be sponsoring the participation of Turkish artists for the fifth year at this prestigious event and is the only non-profit organization represented at SOFA.

The Turkish Cultural Foundation’s showcase of Turkish modern art at SOFA reflects the foundation’s mission to promote Turkish art and expand international opportunities for Turkish artists. Selected from among a large number of applicants, Malik Bulut, Meral Deger, Nejat Kavvas and Serdar Seremet will represent Turkish modern art at SOFA Chicago 2011.
