Here at StuckatTheAirport.com, we’re big fans of art in airports.
And art in airline lounges is a nice bonus for those who have access.
A new addition to the list of airline lounges with great art is the Turkish Airlines Lounge at the new Instanbul Airport.
Turkish Airlines is working with the Instanbul Museum of Modern Art to display artwork from the museum’s collection in the Turkish Airlines Busines Class Lounge at Instanbul Airport.
Turkish Airlines says the 1,400 square-foot exhibition titled, “A Selection from the Istanbul Museum of Modern Art Collection” will change three times each year at year and include artworks ranging from the early 20th century landscape painting tradition to the abstract paintings of artists looking for a synthesis between eastern and western arts during the 1950s.
If you take a moment – and have access – you’ll find great artwork in airline lounges elswhere. Some of my favorite pieces are in the Delta Air Lines Sky Club at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
This work, by Rebecca Coles, not only look great, if you look closely you’ll see that it is made entirely of recycle postage stamps.
