In their nearly imageless film constructed from the audio archive of the 1961 Harvard Peabody Expedition to Netherlands New Guinea, Karel and Kusumaryati document the strange encounter between the researchers and the indigenous Hubula people of New Guinea. Expedition Content explores and upends the power dynamics between anthropologist and subject, between image and sound, offering a parallax image of the histories of ethnographic recording and colonialism.
Selected from the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation Photography Collection, we present the landscapes and places in Istanbul photographs, dating from the 1850s to the 1980s, together with their present-day views!
Suggesting alternative models for new social and economic systems, SUPERFLEX works appear before us as energy systems, beverages, sculptures, copies, hypnosis sessions, infrastructure, paintings, plant nurseries, contracts, or specifically designed public spaces.
Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
