Approaching Istanbul's cultural and artistic history from a musical perspective within the theme of "Şehr-i Istanbul," (The City of Istanbul) Rezonans offers a polyphonic musical experience as part of On the Spot: Panoramic Gaze on Istanbul, a History which aims to shed new light on the history of Istanbul’s representations through panoramic paintings and photographs.
The choir features Kyrie Eleison’s prayers which have echoed through Istanbul for centuries, the poems of Nedim proclaiming "This city of Istanbul is priceless," and the works of Hasan Uçarsu and Volkan Akkoç, important composers of our time.
You can attend the concert, held on the same floor as Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters, with a museum ticket. The seating is unnumbered.
Temporary Exhibition
The exhibition aims to shed new light on the history of Istanbul’s representations through panoramic paintings and photographs. It critically approaches the history of the "panorama" and contextualizes its many iterations. While examining the layered relationships in the production and consumption of panoramic images, the exhibition also explores the circulation of these images among different audiences, their receptions, and the connections between various media that have gained popularity over centuries.
