Upuzun Gün is a one-day event programme shaped around a specific theme or concept. The first edition of the series took place on 21 June, the longest day of the year, during which Hara hosted a range of performances, talks, exhibition tours, workshops, and concerts.
Hara’s first Upuzun Gün celebrated the summer solstice and was inspired by the theme of Ritual, one of the three main themes of Hara’s current exhibition, Where in History Are We?
