The photograph exhibition titled “Faces of the New Century,” specially curated for International Women’s Day, was launched on Friday, March 8, at 15.30. A cocktail reception was held in honor of the opening of the exhibition at the Culture and Convention Center Exhibition Hall with the participation of the President of METU, Prof. M. Verşan Kök.
The exhibition, inspired by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’s famous quote, “Everything we see in the world is the creative work of women,” and prepared under the coordination of the Office of Communications, features portraits of women staff members of METU in various roles who have made great contributions to the university. In addition to the scientific and social contributions of women staff members at METU, their personal aspects are also reflected in the photographs captured through the lenses of Orkun Şahin and Ozan Yavuz.
Highlighting the significant roles of women in both the achievements of METU and our Republic reaching its second century, the “Faces of the New Century” exhibition will be open to visitors at the Culture and Convention Center Exhibition Hall until the evening of March 20.
