‘Falling Beyoglu’
Moderator: Cem Sorguç
Guest: Burcu Pelvanoğlu
‘HEY! Beyoğlu’ podcast series was hosted by art historian, critic and academic Burcu Pelvanoğlu, who is known for her publications on the relationship between modernisation and art in Turkey, as well as her artist monographs and academic studies at different universities. From the first art exhibitions held in Beyoğlu in the last years of the Ottoman Empire to the exhibitions of the early Republican period, from the journey of art in the public and institutional sphere in Beyoğlu in the 1950s to the changing faces of art in the 1990s; the new part of the series, which offers a reading through times, places and people, is titled ‘Düşe Kalka Beyoğlu’. A conversation on the different turning points of Beyoğlu, which has not only been the meeting point of different art disciplines from cinema to theatre, from music to literature, as well as plastic arts for more than a century, but also stands out unrivalled as a cultural production area, takes place within the boundaries of this part of the series.
