Karmatürji: Mschatta Lounge Interview on the Cairen decorative panels

Film

Karmatürji combines traditional Anatolian songs with electronic sounds to create a powerful yet sensitive mix that opens up new musical worlds.

The 6-part concert series "Mschatta Lounge" opened the museum as a platform for cross-over productions and musical inspiration from the midst of changing societies. The idea was to combine music with works of art to create expressions of global interdependence that would be multi-sensitively perceptible. Six bands were invited to the "Mschatta Lounge" in 2019, each of which interpreted an object from the exhibition in their own musical language.
