Culture Index exists to catalog cultural institutions online, and highlight the best practices that inspire us.
Launching with a focus on museums and building from there, we are a resource for both research and discovery. Browse information about online communications, and discover ideas with examples of what’s possible for cultural institutions in the digital space.
As a community project facilitated by Base, we invite you to use and contribute to this growing resource.

Doğançay Museum, Turkey's first contemporary art museum, opened its doors to the public in 2004. Located in a 150-year-old five-storey historical building in Beyoğlu, the museum exhibits a small retrospective of Burhan Doğançay's works and the works of his father Adil Doğançay. The artist's works in the museum cover his fifty years of artistic development, starting from his early figurative paintings to his works and photographs inspired by city walls.
