15 Years at Salt: Exhibition Posters

You come in off İstiklal and the ground floor holds Salt's own back catalogue: posters for the exhibitions it has staged at Salt Beyoğlu and Salt Galata since opening in 2011. They run from "Scramble for the Past" to "Across the Seas", the Özer Kabaş show on in this building until March.

Each poster is credited to its designer. Project Projects (now Wkshps) made the posters for 2011 and 2012 and drew Kraliçe, the typeface that was Salt's identity until 2022. A 15-person team at Daniska covered 2013 to 2017. Since 2018 each show has had its own designer, and some keep coming back: Emirhan Altuner has made five since 2024. If you've walked past Salt for years meaning to go in, this is fifteen years of what you missed, one poster per show.

It suits anyone interested in graphic design, or in Salt's own history. Entry is free, and the building is open Tuesday to Saturday 11:00 to 19:00 and Sunday until 18:00, through 27 December.
