He started his career in Hanya, Crete in 1895, and went on to open photography studios in Izmir in 1910, in Istanbul in 1915 where he acquired his fame, and in Ankara after 1935 where, aside from his private business, he worked as the Chief of Photography Department in Turkish Historical Society. The thousands of photographs (especially portraits) he took during his career (Crete, Izmir, Istanbul, Ankara) have immense historical value.

A souvenir from Izmir.= Izmir'den yadigar.
New English Paperback. Large 8vo. (25 x 23 cm). In English and Turkish. 240 p., color and b/w ills. 500 copies were printed. A souvenir from Izmir.= Izmir'den yadigar. The unity of the old urban fabric in the city of Izmir, having thousands of historical and cultural heritage, is rapidly impaired while the "city identity" is changing. Cultural assets such as forts, bastions, walls, public baths, tombs and inscriptions, bridges, aqueducts, houses, mansions, mosques, fountains and cemeteries are all, our shared memories which are worth-appreciating. Basmane and its neighborhood are famous for having intense cultural assets where historical, architectural and archaeological values are treated with great care. The number of the abondoned, moved, burned and ruined characteristics of the city, caused by the misuse or other countable reasons, are increasing day by day. Due to the unauthorized interventions by the non-experts, they are also cut off from the city's historical identity. In my book 'A Souvenir from Izmir' I intended to draw attention of the relevant institutions and organizations to the importance of the cultural assets in this region, to call the authorities for taking the necessary action for the unregistered artifacts and to help researchers in easily finding their places by giving the exact addresses of these artifacts. Because I am conscious of the fact that protecting and preserving the cultural assets is the most meaningful gift that could be left to the next generations. Hereby, I would like to thank Ayse Üngör, director of Ahmet Piristina city archive and Museum of Izmir Metropolitan Municipality, and his colleagues Gülsüm Berdan Eren, Buket Ocak, Alev Turhan, Ekrem Tükenmez, Servet Kuru for their efforts in editing, translating and publicating my book; and Asst. Prof. Dr. Oktay Gökdemir; and Bedriye Gülay Besikçi for her illustrations and old black and white photos, and finally Yunus Koç and Atilla Özdemir for photos.

John Garstang's footsteps across Anatolia.= Anadolu'da John Garstang'in ayak izleri.
New English Paperback. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 240 p., b/w ills. John Garstang's Footsteps Across Anatolia aims to highlight the international contributions of John Garstang towards the study of archaeology in Turkey and the Near East. He was one of the first advocates of using photography as a means of documenting procedures and findings of archaeological excavations. In Turkey, Garstang was accompanied on his Anatolia Survey (1907) and Sakçagözü excavations (1908-1911) by his German assistant, Horst Schliephack. The result of over five years of research by The University of Liverpool, this book presents a series of short discursive articles about Garstang's work in Turkey and the Near East and a catalogue of newly digitised glass plate negatives from his 1907 journey across Anatolia. Garstang's photographs are an irreplaceable record of the archaeological sites, landscapes and peoples of Turkey and north Syria in the period of the late Ottoman Empire.

Artists in their time.= Sanatçi ve zamani. [Exhibition catalogue]. Edited by N. Can Kantarci. Prep. by Levent Çalikoglu.
New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 315, [5] p., color and b/w ills. Artists in their time.= Sanatçi ve zamani. [Exhibition catalogue]. Edited by N. Can Kantarci. Prep. by Levent Çalikoglu. Istanbul Modern's collection exhibition, "Artists in Their Time", focuses on how artists position their work and themselves within the concept of time. It suggests a conceptual field for examining, and reconciling, the links between an artist's time and societal, cultural, natural and universal time. It unites artists from very different periods, geographies and disciplines around common themes. "Artists in Their Time" takes as its starting point the words of Ahmet Hamdi Tanpinar (1901-1962), one of Turkey's foremost intellectual and literary figures: "I am neither within time nor completely outside of it." Tanpinar's views about time illuminate the process by which artists come to terms with the relationship of their work with the past, the present and the future. Accordingly, this exhibition groups together works of art from distinct geographies, periods and disciplines that share the same emotions with respect to a variety of themes: the intersecting responses of abstract art from different periods; the role of materials and studios in the production of art; the transformation from landscapes and still lifes to the present conception of nature; the search for identity; attraction to the Higher and the spiritual; existential questioning; body politics; feminist approaches; the complex problems imposed by the new urban culture; the struggle against war, death and destruction; life stories from Istanbul, a metropolis defined by water and embracing the sea; and efforts to understand the people of Anatolia.

ARET VARTANYAN.
A breath of Istanbul.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In Turkish. 392 p. A breath of Istanbul. Within these pages, we experience Istanbul life, the "you and me" that is this place's heartbeat. Around us swirl the amazing colors of many rainbows and dozens of scents. Here the Istanbulites-Armenian, Greek, Kurdish, Jew, Alawite, Christian, the rich, the poor, the conservative, the marginal-all bear witness to Istanbul's many-faceted selves. This novel of hope is a small reflection of what some people call "utopia" and is foremost a story about living in harmony. Lose yourself in Istanbul's streets while wandering with me as we explore you, me, our lives, our loves, our unfulfilled feelings and wishes, our dreams, fears, hopes, loneliness, struggles, and the daily ups and downs of our fellow millennials. The meaning of Istanbul, Turkey, and the world is "you" for me. They are all "me" and "us." That's the only reality I believe in. Nothing-no work of art or music-will ever be able to fill and nourish your soul as Istanbul does. No scents will ever burn themselves into your memories like the ones in Istanbul. No wisdom except that which you find here will ever seem that real(istic) to you. I have taken a deep breath of IItanbul. All of its life-affirming air I have to share with you has been exhaled into these pages.

ISKENDER PALA.
Death in Babylon love in Istanbul. Translated by Fulya Sever.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In English. 472 p. First English Edition. Death in Babylon love in Istanbul. Translated by Fulya Sever. In the name of evil that undresses man's soul and the love that clothes it again The twenty three thousand year old mystery started in the year of the east white dragon The monks are in search of the door which opens to the endlessness of space; together they sacrificed their lives for a secret, if only they knew what had been kept safe in the deep layers of the verses of a poet by love after thousands of years Those who leave their fingerprints on the bejeweled grip of the sirius beheaded dagger, if they only knew that the dagger collects blood even in its scabbard. Baghdad, Istanbul, Rome, Paris and other cities, with the new love washed ashore, if only they knew that it is dense to fill up all their old histories Wiseman, killers, royals and lovers, if only they knew that the book they are holding is a chunk of love ready to burst into flames The poet, if he only knew that the password hidden like dreams within silky verses were torn by coarse hands with passion, that the grail of the wine of eternity he constructed of poppy leaves were messed up with hatred And now, who is to tell what will happen, when Babylon awakens?
