This May, we trace the spring season in small accumulations: a butterfly crossing the lawn, the first unfurling leaf against old stone, a gathering that only looks like scattering. Spring does not arrive here. It builds, quietly, until the whole place is changed. We invite you to notice it this time.

Land Art Flower Meadow

Artist Giulio Gallana brings a site-specific installation to Aliée Hasbahçe this May. 391 hand-drawn daisies are arranged across the lawn — a quiet, searching pattern that shifts with the light and the weather throughout the month. Seen from above, they appear scattered. Standing among them, they feel like a gathering. The work stays with us all of May.

Art Collection The Collection Awakens

New works enter the house this spring — not as decoration, but as conversation. Tony Cragg, Ghada Amer, and Gregor Hildebrandt join the programme alongside Deniz & Türker Akman, whose origami pieces can be found in the Little House, resting among the olive trees.

Guided Art Tours Private slots are available throughout May. Join our curators for an intimate walk through the spring collection — a conversation rather than a lecture. Reservation required: art@tersaneistanbul.com.tr

Openings & Experiences What the Season Brings

Pizza Bar An Italian concept rooted in craft — 48-hour fermented dough, wood-fired and unhurried. Pizza Bar opens at Hasbahçe this spring.

The Lemonade Cart Outside the Living Room, our seasonal cart returns. Spring, poured into a take-away cup designed for this edition. A small ritual worth slowing down for.

Spring Florist Bag A crossbody bag made to carry flowers without bruising them. Available with any purchase from Aliée Florist.

Beyond Hasbahçe More Spring at Tersane Istanbul

The season extends. Tersane Istanbul hosts floral installations by invited artists, a farmers market, performances for children, and outdoor sport activations under open sky. Aliée holds spring close. Tersane holds it at scale.
