Abstract
The history of ODTÜSanat dates back to 1990s when a public benefit association named Association for Supporting Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (ODTÜ) students was founded by ODTÜ instructors and administrative personnel. Its aim was to create funds for students who had difficulty in continuing their education due to financial problems. In a short span of time, this association expanded and also was expanded with the support of ODTÜ alumni, artists, and organizations and/or institutions. ODTÜSanat, which started in 1999, is a branch of this project that has continued with success since its beginning. ODTÜSanat is organized annually by ODTÜ in Ankara, Turkey as an art event. It brings together different areas of art including fine arts, music, theatre, and cinema and lasts for a month. The event started in 1999 as National Fine Arts Exhibition with the aim of exhibiting works of artists representing different senses of art in a 1200 m2 space. As its scope expanded, its name evolved into Art Festival in 2007 and ODTÜSanat in 2013. In this article, based on the sixteen-year professional experience in organizing the ODTÜSanat exhibitions, processes pertaining to exhibiting art, namely, planning, preparing, and implementation of the exhibition, are explained with examples of problems encountered and solutions developed. Keywords: ODTÜSanat; art; exhibition; artworks; design; space
