Gallery Talk
April 25, 2014 / 19:00
In the early 20th century French diplomat August Boppe’s interest in art history and Turkish culture lead to the formation of a wide collection, an exhibition in Paris titled “Turkish Fashion in 18thCentury”, and the birth of a new research area exploring Ottoman exoticism in European culture. Günsel Renda will explore this topic, ranging from the 18th to the 20th centuries, from personal endeavours to diplomatic relations, in light of its protagonists, the paintings in the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation Collection.
The talk will be in Turkish.

Following the opening of his studio, “El Chark Societe Photographic,” on Beyoğlu’s Postacılar Caddesi in 1857, the Levantine-descent Pascal Sébah moves to yet another studio next to the Russian Embassy in 1860 with a Frenchman named A. Laroche, who, apart from having worked in Paris previously, is also quite familiar with photographic techniques.
Inspired by the exhibition Istanbuls Today, Today's Stories series starts with Pelin Buzluk's story "Coal"! TThis series gathers short stories written by authors encouraged by the photographs in the exhibition.
Due to its existence behind closed doors, the lifestyle and attires of the women in the Harem have been one of the most fascinating topics for western painters and art enthusiasts alike.
