Emphasizing that more importance should be given to art and artists in society, Kaplan said, “Art is the reflection of a society’s cultural values. For this reason, we must adopt a lifestyle that is intertwined with art.”
Kaplan stated that he usually focuses on nature in his works because he loves nature and tranquility, and said that there are 21 of his works in the exhibition.
Noting that he has been intertwined with art for 45 years, Kaplan said, “I think that art is therapy. In the struggle of developing technology and daily life in the modern world, we neglect both ourselves and our environment. But art is a very special therapy method that we can deal with all of this.”

Noting that SANKO Holding, in addition to being an industrial establishment, also supports works that add value to the society and social responsibility projects, Kaplan said:
“In addition to being an industrial organization, SANKO also adds value to the society with its support to cultural events within the scope of its social responsibility project. His contributions to the excavations of Zeugma and Karkamış Ancient City are invaluable. On behalf of the entire art community, I would like to express my gratitude to the Konukoğlu Family and the SANKO Art Gallery management, who made us feel their support for art and artists in our hearts.”

After the speeches, Erol Bulut presented the publication “Zeugma”, which was published by SANKO Holding, to Ziver Kaplan.
