SALT, Art museum and research library in Beyoğlu and Galata districts, Istanbul, Turkey.

SALT operates in two main locations in Istanbul, featuring exhibition spaces, research facilities, and an extensive collection of contemporary art and archival materials.

The institution emerged in 2011 from the merger of Platform Garanti Contemporary Art Center, Ottoman Bank Archives and Research Centre, and Garanti Galeri.

SALT maintains partnerships with major European art institutions through L'Internationale confederation, connecting Turkish contemporary art with international cultural networks.

The research library contains publications, exhibition catalogs, digital resources, and rare books accessible through advanced search systems and digital asset management tools.

The SALT Galata venue occupies the 1896 Imperial Ottoman Bank building, integrating contemporary art programs within the architectural heritage of Istanbul.
