Edited by Nimfa Bisbe Molin. Prep. by Begüm Akkoyunlu Ersöz, Yasemin Ülgen, Oihana Aizarnazabal Arrizabalaga.‎

‎New English Paperback. 4to. (29 x 23 cm). In English and Turkish. 107 p., color ills. The exhibition Look at Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the "la Caixa" Contemporary Art Collection examines portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and videos shape a labyrinth of gazes that invite spectators to reflect themselves in the social mirror of portraits. Fidelity and likeness to the portrayed subject have been an essential condition of portraits, although art has taught us that to portray is not to reproduce but to create an image and, in short, construct a fiction. Most of the works assembled here examine concepts of truth, appearance and representation, besides memory and fiction. Some put the normative canons of portraiture to the test, revealing its ruses and the conventions of society. Painting exposes masks and make-up, whereas photography experiments with the potential of fiction to produce disconcerting effects of reality. Some artists are interested in the anonymity of portraits, while others dissect social roles and address the problems of representing identity. Some works define a figure or a face, while others depict some of the distinctive symbols of our society. Most of the works confirm that in actual fact we all see ourselves as images.‎

‎Bu çagdan gelecege 100 yapit. [= 100 works of art that will define our age]. Translated by Hasan Bülent Kahraman.‎

‎New Turkish Original bdg. HC. In publisher's special slip-case. 4to. (30 x 22 cm). Edition in Turkish. 319 p., color ills. Bu çagdan gelecege 100 yapit. [= 100 works of art that will define our age]. Translated by Hasan Bülent Kahraman. Just as Picasso's Guernica or Gericault's Raft of the Medusa survive as powerful cultural documents of their time, there will be works from our own era that will endure for generations to come. Kelly Grovier curates a compelling list of one hundred paintings, sculptures, drawings, installations, performances, and video pieces that have made the greatest impact from 1989 to the present. The global cast includes Marina Abramovic , Matthew Barney, Christian Boltanski, Louise Bourgeois, Maurizio Cattelan, Marlene Dumas, Olafur Eliasson, Andreas Gursky, Cristina Iglesias, On Kawara, Jeff Koons, Ernesto Neto, Gerhard Richter, Pipilotti Rist, Kara Walker, and Ai Weiwei. Many of the pieces reflect the cultural upheavals of recent times, from the collapse of the Berlin Wall to the blossoming of the Arab Spring. A daring yet convincing analysis of which artworks best capture the zeitgeist of our time, Grovier's list also provides a much-needed map through the landscape of contemporary art. Illustrations of key works are supplemented by comparative images, and short texts offer a biography of each artwork, tracing its inception and impact, and offering a view not only into the imagination of the artist but into the age in which we live. 391 illustrations, 366 in color...‎

"IMOGA, owns one of the world's rare collection of prints, with more than 5000 prints made by owner 100 Turkish and foreign artists and with another 200 prints which were either donated or bought and included in the collection. By means of its vast collection and its impressive system, IMOGA has proven to be one of Turkey's leading art foundations and has acquired an important place in the art world. Süleyman Saim Tekcan started off as a young and idealist educator, fascinated with the potentials of printmaking. From the 1960s on, printmaking played a major part throughout his expedition in art. Tekcan's innovative and inquisitive character reflected on to his prints. As he mastered in the technique, he spread his excitement and enthusiasm not only by forcing the limits of printmaking but also by continuing his mission as an educator throughout the country. Süleyman Saim Tekcan believed that in order for Turkey to reach a civilized and modern standard, education could not be limited to schools and had to be given socially in an extensive manner. The most important criterion for a civilized community is the level attained in arts and culture. In order for art to reach a wide spectrum of people, accessibility in every sense is a must. With this in mind, Tekcan generously shared his facilities and accorded priority to printmaking since it enabled reproduction of a more affordable artwork, allowing it to reach a wider span of people. Tekcan not only played a role in the establishment of printmaking studios in universities but also founded the first professional private printmaking studio in 1974. He provided an important example for printmaking in Turkey, by building his own print machines with the help of the drawings he brought back from Germany. The studio which he initially intended for his own use soon became a center for many other artists. This not only enabled varied ranges and sizes of artworks to open up to the demand of a broader audience, but also made possible for other artists to learn and execute printmaking. In 1984, the studio was relocated to Çamlica with increased facilities, gaining its internationally recognized name: Artess Printmaking Studio... The artists, instead of paying a fee in return for using the facilities of the studio, left a portion of their prints to the studio, a system common in print foundations in the U.S. Tekcan's devotion to printmaking was based not only on the joy he had from the process, but also on his commitment to help develop his country economically, politically and practically. His studio soon evolved into a center in which artists came to exchange and discuss ideas, as well as to produce. Since 2004, Artess Printmaking Studio now has a new home.".

‎New English Paperback. 4to. (28 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 113 p., color and b/w ills. Prints, drawings and watercolours by the masters of the 20th century. A selection from the Cathedral and Diocesan Museum, Vienna Otto Mauer Collection.= 20. yüzyil ustalarindan baski, desen ve suluboyalar. Viyana Katedral ve Baspiskoposluk Müzesi, Otto Mauer Koleksiyonu'ndan bir seçme. [Exhibition catalogue]. Monsignore Otto Mauer was a Catholic priest. He was also a passionate, foresighted collector who, apart from his position as a clergyman, was enthusiastic about all domains of contemporary art and regardless of their beliefs or origins, approached all "avant-garde" artists with the same openness. As one of the most outstanding collections of Modern Austrian art, the names of the artists represented within the collection is almost a "who is who" of post-1945 Austrian art. By encompassing a wide spectrum from "classical" modern to postmodern, Mauer tried to create a "reference collection," analogous to an atlas of art history. By World War II, he had already begun collecting with great resolution, the lithographs of the leading representatives of Parisian modern art, as well as the original works of German and Austrian artists. Gallery St Stephan, which he founded in 1954, evolved into the leading avant-garde gallery of Vienna under his management in the 1950s and 60s; it also acquired a considerable and well-deserved fame on the international art scene. Otto Mauer's relationship with art was always defined by his personal and amicable connections with the artists. His collection, which he was able to expand uninterruptedly until 1973, by purchases and artists' gifts, must be perceived not only as an indication of his progressive interest in art, but also as a very subjective interpretation of modern Austrian painting.‎
