Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This vibrantly illustrated volume chronicles nearly a millennium of Islamic art and architecture in Turkey. Illustrated with some 250 attractive and well-chosen color photographs, Turkish Art and Architecture is fascinating reading for anyone with an interest in Turkey, and an essential reference for any student of Islamic art and architecture. The Anatolian peninsula, one of the oldest seats of civilization, has been ruled by a succession of great powers, including the Romans and their successors in the East, the Byzantines. Its Islamic era began in 1071, when the Seljuk Turks, nomads from Central Asia who had already taken control of Persia, defeated the Byzantine army at Manzikert and moved west, creating a new sultanate in Anatolia. The Seljuks were eventually succeeded in this region by the Ottoman Turks, who crossed the Bosphorus to conquer an exhausted Constantinople in 1453, and went on to extend their power far beyond the borders of modern Turkey, establishing an empire that endured until the early twentieth century. Ruling over a land that had always been at the crossroads of east and west, these Islamic dynasties developed a cosmopolitan art and architecture. As art historian Giovanni Curatola demonstrates in this insightful new book, they combined elements of the prestigious Persian style and memories of their nomadic past with local Mediterranean traditions, and also adopted local building materials, such as stone and wood. Curatola introduces us first to the new types of buildings introduced by the Seljuks?like the caravansary and the türbe, or mausoleum?and then to the sophisticated architectural achievements of the Ottomans, which culminated in the great domed mosques constructed by the master builder Mimar Sinan (d. 1588). He also traces the history of the decorative arts in Turkey, which included lavishly ornamented carpets, manuscripts, armor, and ceramics.

Book excerpt: These more useful but equally appealing arts--ceramics, carpets, and fabrics--are the subject of sections by Walter B. Denny and Louise W. Mackie. Both ceramics and weaving have evolved major artistic traditions in Turkey. Tiles contributed immeasurably to the beauty of the Ottoman buildings and, as is borne out by innumerable book illustrations, the sheen of beautiful fabrics and flow of beautiful rugs were a vital part of what can only be described as the "art" of courtly life under the sultans. Moreover, Turkish tiles and dishes, garments, and rugs have been admired throughout the West for centuries--ever since Marco Polo described "Turkey Carpets" as the "finest and handsomest in the world." Their subtle, complex, and luminously colored designs still enchant us today. An admirably thorough yet succinct chapter by Roderic H. Davison orients the reader to Turkish history.^

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Üryan, Çıplak, Nü: Türk Resminde Bir Modernleşme Öyküsü sanatta portre, manzara, natürmort gibi belli başlı türlerden biri olan nü resmin modern Türk sanatındaki gelişim sürecine odaklanıyor. Sergide bir araya gelen resimlerin sunduğu zengin üslup çeşitliliği, çıplak insan bedeninin Türk ressamları için bir konu olmaktan öte, biçimsel bir arayışın temeli olduğunu, başlı başına sanatsal bir ifade aracı olarak gündeme geldiğini gözler önüne seriyor. Öğrencilik döneminde sanatçıların önündeki en çetin sınav olan insan bedeni, üretim sürecinde bir yandan Batı sanatının modernist eğilimlerini izlerken öte yandan özgün bir dil geliştirmeye çalışan pek çok sanatçı için yeni arayışların ana esin kaynağı olarak karşımıza çıkıyor. Sergi kataloğu, küratör Ahu Antmen’in makalesi üzerinden Osmanlı’dan Cumhuriyet’e uzanan süreçte sanatçı kimliğinin oluşumunu, mahremle özdeşleştirilmiş kadın bedenine yönelik cinsellikten arınmış bir algı geliştirmenin güçlüklerini, modern kimlik algısında sanat ve nü arasında kurulan bağlantıları düşündüren bu resimler aracılığıyla, Türkiye’nin modernleşme öyküsünün ardındaki görsel serüveni hayal etmemize olanak tanıyor. ---- Bare, Naked, Nude: A Story of Modernization in Turkish Painting focuses on the evolution of nude painting as one of the foremost genres alongside portraiture, landscape, and still life in Turkish modern art. The rich diversity of styles represented in the paintings that come together in this exhibition reveal that the nude, far from being a subject for Turkish artists constitutes a means of expression fundamental in the search for form. The most challenging trial for artists in their student years, the human body emerges as a central source of inspiration in both the pursuit for modernist tendencies in Western art and in the efforts to articulate an individual artistic language. The exhibition catalogue, through the essay of the curator, Ahu Antmen and the selected paintings offer us the possibility to envisage the visual adventure behind Turkey’s story of modernization, providing an insight into the formation of artistic identity in the period extending from the Ottoman Empire to the Republic, the challenges of transforming the perception of the female body from a framework of privacy to that of a desexualized object and the connections between the art and the nude in the perception of a modern identity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 21st century's first major academic reassessment of Impressionism, providing a new generation of scholars with a comprehensive view of critical conversations Presenting an expansive view of the study of Impressionism, this extraordinary volume breaks new thematic ground while also reconsidering established questions surrounding the definition, chronology, and membership of the Impressionist movement. In 34 original essays from established and emerging scholars, this collection considers a diverse range of developing topics and offers new critical approaches to the interpretation of Impressionist art. Focusing on the 1860s to 1890s, this Companion explores artists who are well-represented in Impressionist studies, including Monet, Renoir, Degas, and Cassatt, as well as Morisot, Caillebotte, Bazille, and other significant yet lesser-known artists. The essays cover a wide variety of methodologies in addressing such topics as Impressionism's global predominance at the turn of the 20th century, the relationship between Impressionism and the emergence of new media, the materials and techniques of the Impressionists, and the movement's exhibition and reception history. Part of the acclaimed Wiley Blackwell Companions to Art History series, this important new addition to scholarship in this field: Reevaluates the origins, chronology, and critical reception of French Impressionism Discusses Impressionism's account of modern identity in the contexts of race, nationality, gender, and sexuality Explores the global reach and influence of Impressionism in Europe, the Middle East, East Asia, North Africa, and the Americas Considers Impressionism's relationship to the emergence of film and photography in the 19th century Considers Impressionism's representation of the private sphere as compared to its depictions of public issues such as empire, finance, and environmental change Addresses the Impressionist market and clientele, period criticism, and exhibition displays from the late 19th century to the middle of the 20th century Features original essays by academics, curators, and conservators from around the world, including those from France, Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Turkey, and Argentina The Wiley Blackwell Companion to Impressionism is an invaluable text for students and academics studying Impressionism and late 19th century European art, Post-Impressionism, modern art, and modern French cultural history.

This book was released on 2010-06-21 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art historians have long been accustomed to thinking about art and artists in terms of national traditions. This volume takes a different approach, suggesting instead that a history of art based on national divisions often obscures the processes of cultural appropriation and global exchange that shaped the visual arts of Europe in fundamental ways between 1492 and the early twentieth century. Essays here analyze distinct zones of contact--between various European states, between Asia and Europe, or between Europe and so-called primitive cultures in Africa, the Americas, and the South Pacific--focusing mainly but not exclusively on painting, drawing, or the decorative arts. Each case foregrounds the centrality of international borrowings or colonial appropriations and counters conceptions of European art as a "pure" tradition uninfluenced by the artistic forms of other cultures. The contributors analyze the social, cultural, commercial, and political conditions of cultural contact--including tourism, colonialism, religious pilgrimage, trade missions, and scientific voyages--that enabled these exchanges well before the modern age of globalization.

The stories in this collection take you beyond the world famous sights of Istanbul to the shores of Asia, to an Istanbul that is vibrantly alive with the sounds of street vendors, wedding parties, weekly markets and more. Come behind the tourist façades and venture deep into this sometimes chaotic, often schizophrenic but always charming city.

Book excerpt: This dissertation is a critical history of modern art in Turkey, focusing on two generations of artists that came to articulate the parameters of painting in the late Ottoman Empire and the Turkish early republic. I follow the trajectories of a selection of artists who became leading figures in the Turkish art world over the course of their careers: These painters contributed to the artistic discourse not only through their work, but also through their positions as teachers, gatekeepers, and tastemakers. While their artistic trajectories set these two generations apart, they had just as much in common: they all rose up to what they defined as the academicism of their teachers, formed generational alliances, opened exhibitions, served as missionaries of the new nation, attempted to find perpetual principles for a Turkish art, struggled to find their artistic identities, and got labeled as European imitators. Pressed between divergent expectations from the outside as well as the inside, they oscillated between the search for the universal and striving for the local. Oil painting had been a marker of modernity and social emancipation already in the Ottoman period; it was a vessel in attaining a level of civilization contemporaneous with the rest of the world (read Europe), a crucial tool in the ongoing pursuit of technological modernity, and also a mode of self-expression. In the early years of the republic, the Turkish intelligentsia strove for a cultural synthesis that would take its forms from the West, whereas its content would be determined by local sources. Yet, painting is neither a technology that can be borrowed, nor simply a manifestation of cultural essence but a repository for both, and much more; it resists being delineated into strict categories of form and content. The task of this project is to chart the different ways in which the late-Ottoman and Turkish painters who embraced the medium of painting attempted to position themselves within this conundrum, oscillating between emulation and invention. Charting how this predicament manifested itself in the work of these artists and the discourse it generated is also revelatory of the paradox of Turkish modernization itself, with implications for our understanding of modernisms around the world and for emerging theories of the tensions between modernist art and the modernization of nation-states. Attending to the specific historical, political and aesthetic realms of this thirty-year period, this dissertation analyzes how the two generations of painters negotiated these challenges. In this dissertation, I read the paintings, exhibition histories, institutional shifts, artist testaments, articles and reviews that shaped Turkish painting over the period in question as articulations of a complex system, presenting a counter-history of one modernism among many. This, I argue, strove for synthesis but ultimately remained syncretic--a strategic amalgam of Turkey's highly polyglot reality that refused to be smoothed into a synthetic whole.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an attempt to outline the development of art and architecture in Anatolia. While covering the works made possible by this genius who holds an unsurpassed position in the history of Turkey, as well as the handicrafts of the same period, each in their own sections, the book tries to highlight both the architectural currents existing prior to Sinan and those architectural creations in Post-Sinan periods that remained faithful to his legacy. The final section rounds out by discussing such traditional art forms as woodworking, metal working, tilemaking, cloth, miniatures, carpets, hat (calligraphy) and tezhip ("gold gilding" or "illumination"), which served as complementary elements of architecture.
