- The catalogue Extraordinary Minas: The Story of Inspiration and Innovation in Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics examines the efforts of Kütahya masters in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to revive the disappearing craftsmanship of tile-making by focusing on a master and a group of his work, by presenting objects from the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics Collection. The exhibition explores the concepts of the master-apprentice relationship, tradition and innovation, and mass production versus craft through Minas Avramidis of Kütahya and his ceramic plate series, which illustrates the Genovefa Story. It challenges the conventional imagery of Kütahya tiles and ceramics while shedding light on the stories of masters who dispersed to Kütahya, Athens, Thessaloniki, and Jerusalem in the second quarter of the 20th century.
