Ürün Tanıtımı

Ara Güler’s Istanbul is a unique record ofdaily life in the cultural capital of Turkey from the 1940s to the 1980s,captured by the award-winning photographer and accompanied by an evocativeforeword by Orhan Pamuk, the first Turkish recipient of the Nobel Prize inLiterature.

As the crossroads between Europe and Asia,Istanbul has lived through several empires and has a character that is as manylayered as its history – something that Güler’s photographs convey with greatsensitivity. In these remarkable black-and-white images, the city’s melancholyaesthetic oscillates between tradition and modernity.

Both writer and photographer were born inIstanbul, and each in his youth held the ambition of becoming a painter. Here,each in his own way paints a picture of his home town and captures its verysoul.

Ara Güler is one of Turkey’s – indeed theworld’s – greatest photographers. The Nobel Prize-winning Orhan Pamuk isTurkey’s best-known writer.
