• W778979348 abstract "ZEYNEP INANKUR, REINA LEWIS, and MARY ROBERTS, eds., The Poetics and Politics of Place: Istanbul and British Orientalism (Istanbul: Suna and inan Kirac Foundation, 2011, distributed in the U.S. by University of Washington Press). Pp. 285. $ 60.00 paper.The publication of this volume is the result of both a symposium on Ottoman Istanbul and British held at the Pera Museum in istanbul in 2008, and the exhibition The Lure of the East, initiated at the Yale Center for British Art, and presented again at the Pera Museum in 2008-09. Richly illustrated, the volume presents the engagement of European (and particularly British) artists and art collectors with the Empire in the nineteenth century and responses to this interest. The essays are divided into three major sections, moving from the history of collecting to politics of place and cultural mediation. In their introduction, the editors, who have all published extensively on Orientalism in the Empire and beyond, point to the specific focus on the dialogue between nineteenth-century British Orientalists and late visual cultures (p. 19).The volume is to be seen in tandem with the exhibition The Lure of the East, and adds to it the perspective of istanbul as the capital of the Empire. Most poignantly, the view from istanbul enables the authors of the volume to critically assess the biased geographies of the study of Orientalist art, and to reframe EastWest relations in an alternative system that include a reframing of geographical relationships. Here, a central point of reference is the approach to center and periphery demonstrated in Zeynep Celik's Empire, Architecture, and the City: French-Ottoman Encounters, 1830-1914 (Seattle: University of Washington Press, 2008). The new approach to the imperial perspective on visual culture, according to the editors, has also had an important impact on the study of British Orientalism. A major goal of the volume is to bring together both perspectives. Unlike The Lure of the East, in wliich only paintings were show n, the present book includes, among others, essays on travel accounts, artists' biographies, and photography. An emphasis is placed on the Pera Museum, the only collection in Turkey to specifically focus on Orientalist painting, and also the host institution for the istanbul incarnation of The Lure of the East, as well as the accompanying Istanbul: The City of Dreams, curated by Zeynep inankur. Bans Kibns and Gunsel Renda. Despite the book's focus on Ottoman-British exchanges within the framework of Orientalism, the chapters reach further afield in discussing multiple aspects of these relations.The first part of the book focuses on depicting, collecting, and displaying the Orient, discussed in essays by Christine Riding, Reina Lewis, Nicholas Tromans, Sarah Searight, Donald Preziosi and Nancy Micklewright. The first two chapters, by Riding and Lewis, look into the historiography of exhibiting Orientalist (again specifically British) paintings and how visual stereotypes of the genre may or may not be subverted in museum presentation. Lewis also explores the challenges of critically re-evaluating Orientalizing genres such as harem literature and the complex dynamics of cultural exchange between East and West as they extend into contemporary politics. With regard to collecting, an important theme is nostalgia, particularly among new groups of collectors in Turkey with a sense of recuperating the past. Troman's essay begins with a discussion of how paintings were selected for The Lure of the East and expands into broader issues of engaging with Orientalist painting. He explores ways to connect the study of Orientalist painting both to Edward Said's Orientalism and to subsequent developments of the same debate. Again, collectors in the Middle East are an important theme throughout the essay, forging a connection to the other chapters in this section of the book. …" @default.
