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.

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.

Book An Audience with the Sultan

Download or read book An Audience with the Sultan written by Eveline Sint Nicolaas and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In September 1727 Cornelis Calkoen, the new ambassador of the Dutch Republic in Istanbul, went to the court of the Turkish sultan to pay his respects - an occasion on which the relationship between the two countries was formally reconfirmed. For Calkoen it was a high point in his diplomatic career. In his entourage was the Flemish artist Jean Baptiste Vanmour, whom he had commissioned to record his audience with Ahmed III. Vanmour had lived in the city since 1699 and made his name there with paintings of costumes and scenes from everyday life. The ambassador was so delighted with the result that he commissioned dozens more works from the painter. Calkoen attached great value to his collection and made detailed provisions for it in his will. In consequence his cabinet can now be seen, virtually intact, in the Rijksmuseum. This book captures the vivid image of the people of the Ottoman Empire and their lives that Calkoen's &‘Turkish' paintings present.

Book  The Turk and Islam in the Western Eye  1450 750

Download or read book The Turk and Islam in the Western Eye 1450 750 written by JamesG. Harper and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unprecedented in its range - extending from Venice to the New World and from the Holy Roman Empire to the Ottoman Empire - this collection probes the place that the Ottoman Turks occupied in the Western imaginaire, and the ways in which this occupation expressed itself in the visual arts. Individual essays in this volume examine specific images or groups of images, problematizing the 'truths' they present and analyzing the contexts that shape the presentation of Ottoman or Islamic subject matter in European art. The contributors trace the transmission of early modern images and representations across national boundaries and across centuries to show how, through processes of translation that often involved multiple stages, the figure of the Turk (and by extension that of the Muslim) underwent a multiplicity of interpretations that reflect and reveal Western needs, anxieties and agendas. The essays reveal how anachronisms and inaccuracies mingled with careful detail to produce a "Turk," a figure which became a presence to reckon with in painting, sculpture, tapestry and printmaking.

Book A Journey Into the World of the Ottomans

Download or read book A Journey Into the World of the Ottomans written by Olʹga Nefedova-Gruntova and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Orientalist painter Jean- Baptiste Vanmour may be the subject of the book, but its value lies in the context Olga Nefedova builds around him. Her point about Vanmour is straightforward: this Flemish artist, who worked for French and other ambassadorial missions in Istanbul, set the tone for how subsequent European painters portrayed Turkey. To drive this point home, she provides an extensively illustrated survey of European representations of “the Orient,” from European Renaissance paintings to contemporary works. She also surveys the subgenre of works by artists attached to European diplomatic missions in Turkey. As a result, she brings nuance to “Orientalist painting,” a category that has too often been seen solely through the lens of colonial-power dynamics at the expense of recognizing the individuality of creative expression." -- Review from AramcoWorld.
