PİLEVNELİ, located in the historic Dolapdere district of Istanbul, opened its doors in 2017 with Johan Creten’s "Between Reality and Dream" and Ugo Rondinone’s "We Are All Light" exhibitions. Founded by Murat Pilevneli, the gallery brings an international perspective to the contemporary art scene in Istanbul and its surroundings. The gallery is housed in a five-story building with a 1,500 square meter exhibition space, designed by Emre Arolat Architecture (EAA), and was shortlisted in the Culture category at the 2018 World Architecture Festival (WAF).

Following the opening of Dolapdere, PİLEVNELİ began presenting art in various pop-up locations. Initially, it organized the "10 Artists / 10 Individual Practices" exhibition at the Mecidiyeköy Likör Factory and went on to host five additional exhibitions. Since 2021, PİLEVNELİ has been holding pop-up exhibitions at venues such as Kaplankaya and Mandarin Oriental in Bodrum. From 2022 onwards, it has organized numerous exhibitions at its own space in Bodrum Yalıkavak, including events in collaboration with Galleria Continua and König Galerie. PİLEVNELİ continues to present art dynamically by maintaining strong communication and partnerships.
