Chris Marker's renowned masterpiece Sans Soleil invites the audience to explore different parts of the world through stories told in the form of letters. Viewers witness the details of other cultures' history and daily life through these segments narrated from a narrator's perspective. The production primarily focuses on the concepts of time and memory by creating a mosaic with footage shot in various countries like Japan, Guinea-Bissau, Iceland, and France. It questions how visual images and memories intertwine and how the boundaries between the past and the present become blurred.
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.
