Abstract

In the recent decades, educational institutions have played a role in fostering artistic production in Northern Cyprus since 1974. An illustration of this contribution is the Günsel Art Museum, established within the Near East University. This museum has not only served as a venue for art exhibitions but has also played a crucial role in promoting the creation and appreciation of art in the region. The research was conducted through a comprehensive case study, with a specific focus on the Günsel Art Museum. The results of the study reveal a positive influence of the museum on artistic production in North Cyprus. It has provided a platform for local artists to showcase their works and implemented educational programs that have introduced young individuals to the world of art. This article aims to explore the artworks and exhibition spaces in the NC post-1974, emphasizing the contributions of educational institutions established in NC during that period to artistic endeavors.
