The article presents an interview with Fulya Erdemci, the artistic director of the 2013 Istanbul Biennial in Turkey. Erdemci comments on various topics including how she hoped artists and audiences would respond to the biennial's title, "Mom, Am I a Barbarian?," how the protests that began in Taksim Square on May 28 impacted the biennial, and whether art can have a social or political impact in a highly charged social and political atmosphere like Istanbul's.
