Turkey's Zeki Muren celebrated in new show

Singer Zeki Muren was a household name in Turkey for more than three decades. His mesmerising voice and powerful delivery earned him the love of millions.

But besides being a singer he was also a composer and songwriter, a master of Turkish classical music, as well as painter, actor and designer.

He was also the first man in Turkey to wear a miniskirt on stage, and many say the country's first gay icon.

Now an exhibition about his life and work - named after one of his biggest hits, Here I am, Zeki Muren - has been pulling record crowds in Istanbul.

Tulay Gungen, general manager of Yapı Kredi Culture, Arts and Publishing showed BBC News around.
