Set in 1990s Chicago, Go Fish stands out as a 16mm guerrilla-style film made on a very limited budget during the height of the New Queer Cinema movement. Directed by Rose Troche and co-written with lead actor Guinevere Turner, the film tells a story about the search for love. Max, a college student stuck in a romantic rut, spends her days discussing relationships and sexuality with her roommate Kia—until she meets Ely. A connection begins to grow between them, but Ely’s long-distance relationship complicates things.
Set against the backdrop of the AIDS crisis, Go Fish gives voice to marginalized youth, offering love and solidarity as a response to social exclusion.
Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
Selected from the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation Photography Collection, we present the landscapes and places in Istanbul photographs, dating from the 1850s to the 1980s, together with their present-day views!
Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
