TIVADAR CSONTVARY, (1853-1919).
Csontvary: An extraordinary master of Hungarian.= Macar resminin siradisi bir ustasi. Prep by Tibor Mester; Begu?m Akkoyunlu; Tania Bahar; Kemal Atakay, György Darabos.
New English Paperback. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 89 p., color ills. Csontvary: An extraordinary master of Hungarian.= Macar resminin siradisi bir ustasi. Prep by Tibor Mester; Begu?m Akkoyunlu; Tania Bahar; Kemal Atakay, György Darabos. Csontváry was an artist of the turn of the century. The richness and complexity in his works cannot be characterised based on stylistic categories. Realistic observation, emphasis on the changing light, the decorative, orgiastic use of color characteristic of Post-Impressionism, the large-scale handling of form and the strong diffraction of the colors often appear simultaneously on the same canvas. The exhibition and accompanying catalogue invite us to discover the works of this extraordinary Hungarian artist, who wrote poetry with paintings that reflect his vision beyond the currents of the period, his unique colors, his symbolic narrative, and the "divine voice" he claims to have heard. Contents: Foreword: Jósef Sárkány.; Csontváry: Lojas Németh.; The sublimity of creation in Csontváry's art: Jósef Sárkány.; Autobiography.; Catalogue.; Biography.

Rembrandt and His Circle exhibition and catalogue was comprised of 99 drawings, 65 of which, including Rembrandt's, were a part of the famous Koenigs Collection. Acquired by the Rotterdam shipowner D.G. van Beuningen in 1940, the collection was then donated to the Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum, thereby ranking this institution as the second largest holder of Rembrandt drawings in Netherlands. Since 1988, however, these works of Rembrandt and his school had not been displayed collectively until the exhibition held in 2006 at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen. Rembrandt and His Circle welcomes us into the enchanted world of drawing -the purest and most basic form of painting- through the works of a great European master and his school.

METIN AND, (1927-2008).
Bazaar painters: Ottoman figurative arts 2. Edited by Tülün Degirmenci, M. Sabri Koz.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (29 x 23 cm). Edition in English. 248 p., color ills. Bazaar painters: Ottoman figurative arts 2. Edited by Tülün Degirmenci, M. Sabri Koz. Coining the phrase 'bazaar painters' in a 1985 article, Metin And enriched our art history terminology with a new concept as well as offer a glimpse into the world of these artists: how they worked, what they drew, where their works are today and how they contribute to our study of history of art and culture. He continued to promote and popularise their work through books and articles published until 2007, at times repeating earlier content as required. Bazaar painters and their work were not initially identified as a distinctive genre; Franz Taeschner, the first researcher to publish a selection, felt no need to refer to them as anything other than 'miniatures'. Challenging this trend, Metin And set about the immensely difficult task of obtaining pictures of bazaar painting albums from four corners of the globe in order to illustrate a prolific series of essays and books.The second volume of Ottoman Figurative Arts, Bazaar Painters consists of twelve articles published between 1985 and 2007, a comprehensive introduction by Tülün Degirmenci, and a concise album. The pictures and inscriptions Metin And chased enthusiastically all his life are but the echoing footsteps of a book, one that was either never written, or somehow got lost before it could be published.

Pierre Loti et les silhouettes de Hassan: Portraits avant La II. Constitution.= Pierre Loti ve Hasan silüetleri: II. Mesrutiyet öncesi portreler.
Fine French Original bdg. HC. 4to. In French and Turkish. 168 p., ills. Pierre Loti et les silhouettes de Hassan: Portraits avant La II. Constitution.= Pierre Loti ve Hasan silüetleri: II. Mesrutiyet öncesi portreler. The novelist Julien Viaud, famous for his nickname Pierre Loti, is a traveling maritime officer. At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, he makes seven trips to Istanbul. In 1903, at the age of 53, Pierre Loti takes over Le Vautour, the first station ship to the French Embassy in Istanbul, during his fifth trip to Turkey. In the same period, Hasan signed cartoons start to circulate in Istanbul.The person who is hiding under Hasan is actually Robert de Guiroye, a naval officer. This person was then assigned to the auxiliary ship "La Mouette" (Seagull) under the command of Pierre Loti. It is thought that this officer made drawings on this ship in the evening after having spent a long time in important social clubs such as Cercle d'Orient, Pera Palas Ballroom, Tepebasi Theater. Who is actually Hasan / Who is the real Hasan? The answer to this problem is in the exhibition and detailed catalog. Let's see if they can help bring Hasan's identity to light. The "Pierre Loti and Hasan Silhouettes" exhibition is made up of documents obtained as a result of years of research by numerous collections and valuable collector Sayen Erol Makzume, who has vast knowledge of Hasan's lithographs in the early 20th century. The exhibition contains texts, cartoons and in-depth information, and sheds light on the transition period of Turkey after the Second Constitutional Monarchy.

CAO FEI, NILBAR GÜRES, RAQS MEDIA COLLECTIVE et alli.
The time needs changing.= Zaman degismeli. [Exhibition catalogue]. Edited by Begüm Akkoyunlu-Ersöz, Yasemin Ülgen, Ulya Soney.
New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (28 x 24 cm). Bilingual in Turkish and English. 103 p., color ills. The Time Needs Changing exhibition questions our geo-politically controlled notions of time. The three artists in this show give alternatives to linear time, which is currently strictly enforced by the power structures under which we live. The works of Cao Fei, Nilbar Güres and the Raqs Media Collective release the shackles of time, and suggest alternative and parallel paths. The exhibition presents a thought-scape that draws from three different parts of the world; China, Turkey and India. The artists explore time through drawing, video, photography, installation and new media. Time is one of the many subjects addressed by the participants of the exhibition. Their works help us better understand our relations with ourselves, as well as those with the world around us. Nilbar Güres questions masculine linear time; Cao Fei offers us greater control in a world where real and virtual intersect; and the Raqs Media Collective liberates time itself in its works that associate memory with different experiences.

The Russian avant-garde dreaming the future through art and design. [Exhibition catalogue].
New English Paperback. 4to. Edition in English. 191 p., color ills. The Russian avant-garde dreaming the future through art and design. [Exhibition catalogue]. The exhibition is co-curated by Dr. Nazan Ölcer Head of Sakip sabanci Museum and Dr. Maria Tsantsanoglou, Head of the George Costakis Collection at State Museum of Contemporary Art, Thessaloniki, and besides the Costakis Collection it contains a selection of 513 works from Moscow's All-Russian Museum of Decorative Arts and Multimedia Art Museum and works from leading private collections in Europe shown together for the first time thus shedding a light upon the important place Russian Avant-Garde occupied in the history of art. The 'Dreaming the Future. Russian Avant-garde Art and Design' exhibition does not only focus on the dramatic changes and radical developments that happened during first quarter of the 20th century and prepared the groundwork for intellectual and artistic progress, not just within the Russian artistic culture, but it is designed to hod a mirror to the effect on world art. The exhibition shows the Russian avant-garde artists that in the early 1900s tried to introduce art as a lifechanging power, the ground-breaking work of the artists in this period where the reformist atmosphere had been brought about by the October Revolution in 1917, and the social design they tried to put into practice supported by the new regime and also the wide boundaries of the future they dreamed of. The exciting technological developments and industrialisation that occurred in the early 20th century turned the avant-garde artists towards science and overcoming the boundaries of the earth, dreams of space reflected the beliefs the artists had in the future and tihs is very vividly reflected in the works displayed in this exhibition.

The exhibition centres on the art of Mersad Berber, who is one of the greatest and most significant representatives of Bosnian?Herzegovinian art from the second half of the 20th century. Inspired by the great European masters, from Renaissance to Art Nouveau, Berber?s works exemplify the deep, opaque whites of his journeys through the fairy tale landscapes of Bosnia to the dark, macabre burrows of Srebrenica. The exhibition catalogue includes essays by Aida Abadzic Hodzic, the curator of the show and a well-known art historian, teaching at the Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo, and by Edward Lucie-Smith, the art critic and the honorary consultant of the project. While Abadzic Hodzic concentrates on how the art of Berber reflects all the multi-layered cultural history of his country; Lucie-Smith, who had worked with the artist in several exhibitions, focuses on his art within the European art history scene.

ÖZELM GÜNYOL, MUSTAFA KUNT.
Özlem Günyol & Mustafa Kunt. [Exhibition catalogue].
New English Original bdg. HC. 4to. In English and Turkish. 328 p., color ills. Dirimart opens its doors to the second solo exhibition of the Frankfurt-based artist duo Özlem Günyol-Mustafa Kunt at the gallery. The exhibition gathers new works for this show as well as their recent Materialistic Paintings series. Material of Günyol and Kunt s work comprises geographical and architectural measurements, political symbols, language, residue, and found objects. They are in pursuit of an aesthetic with which they dissemble things, isolate them from their physicality and context, and reorder with an assiduous precision and labor. Those transferals and transformations do not only take place in the material but also in their meanings, sometimes very radically. Concepts such as Europe, capital, migration, constitution, equity, belonging/exclusion are transformed and rendered sensible in a different aesthetic experience. Editors: Translator: 328 pages.

"This book has been prepared in coordination with 'Maria Kiiliçlioglu Retrospective' Exhibition held at Is Sanat Kibele Gallery between January 9th - February 23rd, 2019.". Kiliçlioglu, who is the daughter of famous Bulgarian sculptor Dimitar Dimov, began creating art at her father's sculpture workshop when she was just 4 years old. Her toys were dough for statues, waxes and bronze. She discovered the miracle of creating 3D objects from a young age. She focused on the West because of her education but then turned her face to Mesopotamia, diverging new searches in her art life. Her first few works, such as "Mother," "Devil," "Angel" and "Kiss," are the representations of the artist's search for a form. She created many works in the Hellenistic style with the statues that were produced with stone, wax and bronze. The works that she created using surrealist and fantastic elements added a different and authentic aspect to her art, in combination with her imaginative power. TURKISH ART Sculpture.

Constantinople and the orientalists. [HC Edition].
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English. 331 p., b/w and color ills. Constantinople and the orientalists. Since the publication of our earlier study; 'Orientalism and Turkey', we have been exploring the ramifications of Orientalism in the Ottoman capital of Istanbul itself, or as it was generally known in the nineteenth and early twentieth century: Constantinople. The present study, documented by both visual and written records, including memories, reveals not only the ways in which Istanbul was perceived and portrayed by European artists in the nineteenth century, but it also tries to represent the contemporary city as it truly lived and breathed. In the present work, the reader will discover the identity of Western artists whose works pictorially limned the Ottoman capital, their favorite subjects ¿the harem, the bath, the coffeehouse, and the slave market- and the nature of their interpretation of these subjects.

New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English and Turkish. 236 p., 1 b/w portrait of Redhouse frontispiece, b/w ills. Sir James W. Redhouse: The making of a perfect orientalist? = Sir James W. Redhouse: Mükemmel bir dogubilimcinin öyküsü? (American Board Library Occasional Publications No: 1). First published in the Journal of the American Oriental Society in 1979, and now revised and updated, Carter Findley's "The Making of a Perfect Orientalist?" is a scrupulously researched biography of the enigmatic nineteenth-century Turkish language scholar James W. Redhouse. Primarily embodied in two major dictionaries-A Lexicon, English and Turkish (1861) and A Turkish and English Lexicon (1890)-Redhouse's work established a crucial base for the further development of English-Turkish lexicography. Unparalleled at the time, his contributions remain vital today, forming the core of a number of bilingual English-Turkish dictionaries which still bear the Redhouse name. A brief overview of the press that published Redhouse's lexicons, as well as the reminiscences of two editors who helped revise them in the twentieth century, round out this provocative study of the life of James Redhouse.

From the friend's drawer: Mengü Ertel's Collection of Cihat Burak's works.= Dostun çekmecesinden: Mengü Ertel'in Koleksiyonundan Cihat Burak eserleri. The book focusing on over 80 drawings by Cihat Burak, one of the most important representatives of figurative painting in Turkey, from the Mengü Ertel Collection, has been named "From A Friend s Drawer" in reference to the duo s friendship. It cracks open a door onto the universe shared by these two friends from the 1960s, characterized by the dialogue between literature and painting, poster and design, architecture and theatre, all the way up to the early 1990s. The book written by Oguz Erten is particular in that it allows for a reading of Cihat Burak through his own stories. Everything about him that makes Cihat Burak who he is which may at times become crystallized in yearning for the mother, at times in the anxiety over losing Istanbul, at times in his love for animals and other times in his love for books to the extent of losing himself in a novel are brought alive to speak of him in his own words, while Mengü Ertel s collection serves to visualize this dream-world. The book provides us with the opportunity of placing Cihat Burak a figure who, while he lived, observed us from the outside as an insider and expressed these observations in his stories and paintings in the seat of the one being watched instead, allowing us to enjoy seeing him in all of his aspects.

"The year 2018 marks the 10th anniversary of the establishment of zilberman Gallery. To commemorate this special occasion, we have published this book which reflects on Zilberman's ten years of history and contents through the viewpoints of the actors who took part at different stages with varying intensities. Over the past ten years, the diverse interests, works and stories of all the artists being represented and ehibited in the gallery, along with the efforts and involvements of the outstanding curators, collectors, researchers, writers, and the ever-growing team have shapd the identity of the gallery. While the book provides a glimpse into the journey of Zilberman Gallery by revealing its working model, conditions, priorities and trajectories, it also aims to underline the determination to continue supporting and generating new and eceptional artistic and curatorial impulses. Therefore, even as the book contains all the data of the past ten years of the gallery, it is, indeed, all about the strong content, the genuine support, the love and the trust collected over the years.". (From Preface). 2000 copies were printed.

Cornelius Loos in the Ottoman world: Drawings for the King of Sweden, 1710-1711. [with] Panoramas & map [book]. Prep. by Lâle Uluç, David Jones, Klas Kronberg, Ersu Pekin. 2 volumes. [BOXED]. Cornelius Loos was one of the young military officers who followed Karl XII to the Ottoman Empire in 1709. From the royal headquarters in what is at present the republic of Moldova, Loos was sent to Istanbul on the King's orders in 1710. From there his journey was pursued by boat over the Mediterranean to Egypt and he returned by land through Jerusalem, Damascus, Aleppo, Konya and Izmir. Loos' mission was to make drawings of the "rarities and monuments" that he would encounter on his journey. Out of the drawings that have survived until today, one is from Palmyra, two from Rhodes and Bodrum and around forty aquarelle tush drawings from Istanbul. It is possible that part of the original drawings were destroyed in the "Skirmish at Bender" in 1713, while other works, due to various reasons, disappeared on their way to Sweden. The conserved drawings are kept at the Swedish National Museum and were exhibited there in 1985. (See catalogue titled "Cornelius Loos. Teckningar från en expedition till Främre Orienten 1719-1711", Stockholm, Nationalmuseum, 1985). The drawings represent a unique record of the urban landscape and the monuments in Istanbul in the early 18th century. The collection includes three great panoramas of the city seen from the Topkapi palace to the upper part of the Golden Horn. To the Loos paintings can be added the great Mecca painting brought to Sweden by Mikael Eneman and kept in the Uppsala University Library, and a small group of oil paintings brought back by Loos' travel companion Conrad Sparre, which are also kept in the art collection of Uppsala University. In addition there are travel accounts and correspondence from these journeys. (From the 'SRII's official site, Karin Adahl's project). "In January 1710 the Swedish king Charles XII, in exile in the Ottoman Empire, sent three of his officers on a journey from the royal camp near Bender in Moldova to travel to Constantinople and from there along the Eastern Mediterranean to Egypt. Their mission was 'to view the there existing rarities and monuments, to draw and to measure'. Cornelius Loos, one of the young officers, returned to his king in 1711 with more than 250 drawings. Only forty-nine, kept under the king's bed, survived a skirmish in the camp in 1713, the so called 'kalabalik' at Bender. King Charles had a vision to publish an encyclopaedic work about the Near East, a dream that was lost in the fire in the camp. The drawings were brought to Sweden when the king returned from the Ottoman Empire in 1714. He died in battle in Norway in 1718. Loos' drawings are unique documents of Constanttinople in the early 18th century, with large scale, detailed panoramas, important prospects of the interior of the Hagia Sophia and views from the Ottoman city. A big map is accompanied by minor drawings from the Black Sea, the Eastern Mediterranean and Egypt, as well as a spectacular set of water-colours of head dresses from the Ottoman world. The Loos collection of drawings is today kept in the National Museum in Stockholm.". Texts by Göran Baarnhielm, Ulla Ehrensvard, Nurhan Atasoy, Günsel Renda, Bo Lundstörm

ORHAN PAMUK, INCI EVINER.
We, elsewhere: 58th International Art Exhibition la Biennale di Venezia, pavilion of Turkey.= Biz, baska yerde: 58. Uluslararasi Sanat Sergisi La Biennale di Venezia, Türkiye pavyonu. Text by Orhan Pamuk.
New English Paperback. Oblong 4to. (24 x 27 cm). In English and Turkish. 160 p., ills. We elsewhere.= Biz baska yerde. [Biennial catalogue]. We, Elsewhere, a new work by Inci Eviner will be presented in the Pavilion of Turkey at the 58th Venice Biennale, to be held from May 11 through November 24, 2019. Organised by the Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (IKSV) and sponsored by Fiat, the Pavilion of Turkey will be curated by Zeynep Öz and located at Sale d Armi, which is one of the main exhibition venues of the Venice Biennale. We, Elsewhere is created as a site-specific installation for the Pavilion of Turkey at the 58th Venice Biennale and makes use of elements such as reconfigured objects as well as drawings, video, sound, and performance. It is an investigation into the spaces that we create, and are created for us as a result of collective displacement. The exhibition ruminates on how subjects who find themselves in these spaces react and interact with one another and with their memories. Various elements of sound, reconfigured objects and characters crafted by Eviner evoke the sense of a search for the missing, the erased and that which is elsewhere. A certain aggression and abruptness comes out in the characters everyday behaviour informing their identities in transition. The space itself, in which visitors are invited to walk along the ramps, courtyards and edges, displays permeability, allowing views through cuts and cracks along the walls. The paths punctuated by the objects suggest the way in which memory eases conflicts. Together, the characters, the space and the paths tell a story akin to Hannah Arendt s narrative of struggles in We Refugees.

AKIRA KUROSAWA.
Akira Kurosawa. Drawings.= Desenler. [Exhibition catalogue]. Edited by Begüm Akkoyunlu Ersöz, Fatma Çolakoglu, Tania M. Bahar.
New English Paperback. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. [117] p., color ills. Akira Kurosawa. Drawings.= Desenler. [Exhibition catalogue]. Edited by Begüm Akkoyunlu Ersöz, Fatma Çolakoglu, Tania M. Bahar. "Ten years after the death of Akira Kurosawa, Sana and Inan Kiraç Foundation Pera Museum is paying special tribute to the world of cinema's Japanese master by hosting eighty-seven drawings that express Kurosawa's visual intricate universe. As a prelude to this symphony of colors, the words of Aldo Tassone recount the journey of the emperor of Japanese cinema as a biographical essay. A descendent of the Samurai, Kurosawa was born during the end of Japan's Meiji Period (1867-1912). His childhood coincided with the transition from feudalism to modernity, from isolation to opening up to the world. It was undeniably this particular atmosphere, as much as his family circle, that urged him from a very early age on, to quench the thirst he had for Western art. His oeuvre, in fact, is an original synthesis of Eastern and Western cultures.".

Thresholds.= Esikler. [Exhibition catalogue]. 16 May - 29 July 2018. Translated into English by Süreyyya Evren. Curated by Mine Haydaroglu.
New English Paperback. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 112 p., ills. Thresholds.= Esikler. [Exhibition catalogue]. 16 May - 29 July 2018. Translated into English by Süreyyya Evren. Curated by Mine Haydaroglu. Thresholds is an ongoing touring exhibition that restages the world's first major exhibition of photography. Visitors travel back in time to 1839, when British scientist William Henry Fox Talbot first presented his photographic prints to the public at King Edward's School in Birmingham. The experience is a fully immersive portal to the past; visitors can walk freely throughout a digitally reconstructed room, and are able to touch the bespoke vitrines, fixtures and mouldings; even the heat and scent of a coal fire is recreated. Infrared sensors track visitors movements, creating ghostly avatars that indicate their position and enhance the feeling of travelling through time. Collishaw has also created a soundscape to accompany the exhibition: the demonstrations of the Chartist protesters who rioted in 1839 on the streets of Birmingham, and who can be glimpsed through the digital windows.
