Gallery Selvin was founded in Ankara in June of 1985 by Selvin Gafuroglu. The Gallery has set out to raise the profile of art and it's creators within contemporary Turkey and to build the foundations of a market for art.

A parallel aim is, of course, to continue to present art to those who enjoy it in a pleasant environment.

In the international arena Gallery Selvin attempts to represent Turkish art to the world and to bring the art of the world to Turkey by exhibiting work from abroad.

Gallery Selvin also concentrates on the publication of high quality reproductions and books.
