Odeabank’s art platform, O’Art, was founded in 2015 based on the idea that art should be accessible and visible to everyone. O’Art presents all disciplines of today’s art to the society in different venues, together with the criticism of the current problems of the socio-cultural structure.The artist-work-space-audience relationship established in physical exhibition through O’Art was transferred to digital platforms in 2021 due to the impact of COVID-19. In the exhibitions held in this way, support for new art production continues without restricting form, shape, content and approach.Since its establishment, the sphere of influence of art has been expanded through 22 exhibitions held on the O’Art platform. Young people who criticize, think, are interested in and create art were brought together through art competitions. Moreover, the works of artists from all over the world engaged in contemporary art, digital art, installation, drawing, photography and many different disciplines were opened to visitors. In this way, with the cooperation of many galleries and art venues, contributions were made to the visibility of artists and art. O’art exhibitions are also available online since 2020. Virtual exhibitions can be experienced by lovers of art on the Odeabank website. Additionally, in 2016 and 2017, O’Art brought together young artists who see, feel, criticize and create with the O’Art Art Competition and exhibited the award-winning works.
