Istanbul European Capital of Culture 2010 plans unveiled
The city of Istanbul in Turkey unveiled its plans for celebrating its nomination as European Capital of Culture 2010. The planned projects, ranging from street art to music festivals, are dedicated to the ancient philosophy of Aristotle who said everything is made up of the four elements: earth, air, fire, and water.
"This is how we interpret Istanbul. We believe that the culture that has permeated Istanbul for many centuries, allowing a Greek man to work with an Armenian artisan, a Turkish businessman and a Jewish trader, is a good example for the world today," said Nuri Colakoglu, president of the Istanbul 2010 committee.
