Galle Daum Lalique: The poets of glass.= Les poetes du verre.= Camin sairleri. [Exhibition catalogue]. Text by Niko Filidis, Sema Olcay, Nadja Inciyan. Émile Gallé, a French designer who was a pioneer and an… important representative of the Art Nouveau movement, received an education of philosophy, literature, and botanics. The artist, who was working in the fields of glass art and furniture design, researched techniques of glass decoration and was a pioneer in new era glass art. Gallé, Daum, and Lalique glasses are outstanding products that reflect the spirit of this era. After the 1920s, there was a transition to Art Deco with a cubist influence, mysterious and ambiguous, to a style with sharp lines and geometry. At the beginning of the 20th century, the integration of personal creativity with the possibilities offered by science and technology, enabled the production of beautiful objects that made people happy, by expert artists and craftsmen. Production in the studio of the "one and only" was followed by a time period that moved towards serial production. This process resulted in the absolute victory of industrial production today. Art Nouveau and Art Deco objects, which were products of special and extraordinary design, have been receiving increased attention and demand. With this exhibition of 160 works, you will get an idea of the progressive sensibility in the glass art of Emile Gallé, who was an important representative of decorative arts. You will also have a chance to see various examples of the works by Daum Brothers, who were important representatives of École de Nancy, and by René Lalique, famous designer.

Izmir: A legacy for tomorrow.= Izmir: Yarinlara bir miras.= Izmir: Un héritage pour demain. Translated by Jean Luc Maesso et alli. Texts by Tufan Atakisi et alli. Cities, as centers of living together, are…also entrusted to us from the previous generation and which we will entrust to the next generation, in addition to their function of being living spaces. Physical, social and cultural changes that cities experience over time in different historical periods, the traditional texture, the newly developed identity are most importantly found in city photographs. Taking this as a starting point, the exhibition was prepared in collaboration between Arkas Art Center and IFOD (Izmir Art of Photography Association) to pass on the Izmir of 2015. The focus was the specifics of Izmir that distinguished it from other cities, adding value to the city. The architecture of the city, its nature, people, business and residential districts, which give clues to the social and cultural life of the city, have all been immortalized through a selection of photographs made over a year. The artists used their lenses to show the memorable beauties of the various districts and neighborhoods of the city, Basmane, Bergama, Bornova, Karsiyaka, Kordon, Ödemis, Selçuk, Urla, using the universal language of photography. The photography exhibition aims to document and leave behind for generations to come the present of Izmir through the lenses of photography artists from Turkey and abroad. TURKISH PHOTOGRAPHY Photographic art Izmir Smyrna Smyrne.

Anatolian travels 19th century.= Périples Anatoliens XIXe siècle.= Anadolu seyahatleri, 19. yüzyil. This exhibition is the second phase of a series of exhibitions dedicated to the eastern routes of travelers. The series…began with "Smyrna in the 18th and 19th Centuries: A Western Perspective", organized at the Arkas Art Center in 2013. The first exhibition looked at Izmir as a beginning point of the journey by exhibiting works and documents that were left behind by travelers, while this exhibition foregrounds the scientific missions of the French, looking at Anatolia as seen by Western travelers beginning their journey in Izmir. This exhibition looks at the information gathered from travel books, documents, photographs, etchings, and portraits to offer a comparative perspective on 19th century Anatolia¿s social, economic, and cultural structure. The exhibition¿s perspective is critically distant to the Orientalist viewpoint that betrayed the East for the sake of aesthetic and cultural goals; the aim is to prioritize the contributions of scientific expeditions to show the reality of the East. The expedition route begins in Izmir and goes through Western Anatolia, the Mediterranean, Eastern Anatolia, Troy, Bursa, Istanbul, Ankara, and the Black Sea region.

[Exhibition catalogue]. Izmir: Arkas Holding A. S. 2017. 4to., 201 p., color ills. English, French and Turkish. Paperback. New ISBN: 9786055974381… CATALOG: Painting & Sculpture KEYWORDS: History of art Painting The paintings chosen for this exhibition emphasize the importance of landscape painting in the art of the Western world. This selection, dating from the first half of the 19th century to the second half of the 20th century, features some of the most prominent artists of European landscape painting. The 90 works from the Arkas Collection, most of which are being shown for the first time, illustrate the flourishing artistic scene that prevailed when Paris was the capital of art. The 19th century was one of innovations and revolutions, both historically and artistically. Landscape painting had begun to be recognized as an independent artistic genre in the first half of the 19th century. Until that period, artists preferred to paint in studios. Then, breaking with the strictures of academicism, they began to experiment with plein air (outdoor) painting. During this period, when art itself was being redefined, artistic movements were evolving according to the pictorial tradition. Nature was represented through diverse modes of expression and new artistic movements came into being, such as the Barbizon School, Impressionism, Symbolism, Post-Impressionism, Fauvism and Expressionism. Landscapes of Water "reflects" the historical evolution of the pictorial medium over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries. Here you will find the remarkable works of Eugene Boudin, Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot, Maurice de Vlaminck, Francis Picabia, Henry Lebasque, and Hippolyte Camille Delpy, among others. They invite the viewer on a fabulous odyssey through diverse geographic areas, from the banks of the Seine and the Scottish lakes to the summits of the Alps, by way of the warm light of the Mediterranean, the North Sea and the rivers of Europe.

New ISBN: 9786055974367 CATALOG: Architecture & Urban studies… KEYWORDS: Modern art Contemprary Art A retrospective exhibition by Hungarian-French artist Victor Vasarely began on Feb. 2 in Istanbul's Tophane-i Amire Culture and Arts Center with the contributions of Arkas Holding. Vasarely is renowned as the "grandfather" and leader of the op art movement, a styl eof visual art that uses optical illusions. Professor Yalcin Karayagiz from Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University (MSGSU), which is hosting the exhibition, told state-run Anadolu Agency that the artist became prominent in Turkey's academic circles in the 1980s. "Methods that he used require serious mathematical solutions. And you unite it with physics and optical illusion. I mean everything you see as a circle is actually made up of cubes", Karayagiz said. He noted that Vasarely's art was the continuation of Bauhous arts.
