Haydarpaşa Station exhibit arrives in Vienna
VIENNA hürriet daily news
The second leg of the exhibition, titled “From the Bosphorus to the Danube: Past, Present, Uncertain Future,” opened yesterday at Vienna’s Steiner Gallery. The exhibition, curated by Suzie Pilon and Michael Werbowski, is organized by the Haydarpaşa Preservation Board.
The show marks a cultural event that seeks to raise awareness both in Turkey and internationally about the plight of the great yet endangered (by privatization and neglect) public space. Canadian and Turkish artists, printmakers and photographers are taking part in the show, which aims to collect funds for the Haydarpaşa Station Preservation Project, which - under the auspices of the World Monuments Fund - has been instrumental in advocating for the station’s preservation and restoration.
The theme of the exhibition is to show how art work can be integrated within a public space. It also wishes to demonstrate how the site itself can serve as a meeting and gathering place for the citizenry, while also remaining a fully functional transportation hub and a viable cultural venue.
Information on railway stations
According to the press release, railways stations serve an essential function; increasing mobility and linking people and places in an almost seamless fashion. The railways or train stations naturally also function as points of arrival and departure, and give us a fleeting feeling of “temporary permanence.”
They serve as a bridge between time and space, frontier, and metropolis, inwardness and remoteness, foreign and domestic territory. They are a location meant to be there, or where our diverging and diverse destinies can meet and exchange timeless narratives.
The railways and their transportation hubs such as the classic, modern, or postmodern railway terminals are inalterable or where temporality is only a train timetable. Hence, the railway station is the central locus for exchange; or where we re-invent ourselves in an eternal process of renewal, mutual discovery and constant mobility. This is what makes stations such as Haydarpaşa so vital to our everyday lives and existence.
“From the Bosphorus to the Danube: Past, Present, Uncertain Future” can be seen until Oct. 20.
Haydarpaşa Railway Station
Built by the German-owned Anatolian-Baghdad Railway and designed by architects Otto Ritter and Helmuth Conu, the historic Haydarpaşa Railway Station is an iconic landmark in Istanbul and a symbolic gateway to the city, on its Asian coastline. In January 2012 the station closed to allow for the construction of a high-speed rail line between Istanbul and Ankara. Planning for transportation in the greater region, development of the area around the station is still in its formative stages, and the future use of the station has yet to be determined.

After winning the Luciano Pavarotti International Voice Competition, an initiative backed by the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities, that started in Modena in 1988, Alagna made his professional debut as Alfredo Germont in La Traviatawith the Glyndebourne touring company. This led to many engagements throughout smaller cities across France and Italy, mainly again as Alfredo, a role he would eventually sing over 150 times. His reputation grew and he was soon invited to sing at major theaters such as La Scala in 1990, Covent Garden in 1992, and the Metropolitan Opera in 1996. His performances of Roméo in Roméo et Juliette by Charles Gounod at Covent Garden in 1994 (opposite Leontina Vaduva) catapulted him to international stardom. In recent years, Alagna has been an advocate of restoring to prominence neglected French operas - Alfano’s “Cyrano de Bergerac,” Massenet’s “Le Jongleur de Notre-Dame,” Lalo’s “Fiesque,” and new works - Vladimir Cosma’s “Marius et Fanny” and his brother David Alagna’s “Le dernier jour d’un condamné.” He has also recorded light music with an homage album to Luis Mariano, Sicilien, and Pasión.
A sultan who loved art: Abdülaziz and painting
ISTANBUL - Anadolu Agency
Currently Dolmabahçe Art Gallery hosts the exhibition ‘Sultan Abdülaziz with paintings’ with the support of the International Culture and Arts Association (UKSD), unveiling 12 unsigaSultanned portraits and paintings by Abdülaziz
The exhibition consists of 12 unsigned portraits and paintings by Sultan Abdülaziz that belong to the National Palaces Painting collection. The collection had given permission six months earlier and the paintings were bought from Poland’s Krakow National Museum. There are also etchings and sketches by Abdülaziz.
Even though the paintings are unsigned the experts have worked on them and discovered that the sketches matched up with each other. The sketches and also the paintings were produced by Abdülaziz who was also a painter.
Abdülaziz was also known for his love of art and his interest in art. Speaking at the opening of the exhibition, UKSD President Tuna, said they were very happy to organize such an exhibition.
Tuna said the paintings had been bought 6 months before and they were found to match with the other paintings of Abdülaziz in the National Palace Collection.
An exclusive museum for National Collections opened in Istanbul’s Dolmabahçe Museum last year. The museum is home to 43,000 artifacts dating back to the 19th century and exhibits the daily life in the empire’s palaces.
Curator of the ‘Sultan Abdülaziz with paintings,’
exhibtion Mehmet Lütfi Şen (above) says Ottoman
sultans always dealt with art and painting.
Noting that this was a first in the history of Turkish painting, Tuna said, there were many paintings that were thought to belong to Chlebowski, however they were subsequently found not to. In the years 1864-1876 Chlebowski was master painter for Sultan Abdülaziz and took up residence in Constantinople. It is known that Chlebowski became popular with the Sultanate. During his services, he had obtained permission to bring with him a large Icon of Mother of God Leading our Way, which had been rescued from an Odegon Monastery in 1453. He had come across it in one of the magazines with old relics, unheeded by the Ottoman keeper. This account is certified in a letter by the Comité National Polonais a Constantinople, dated June 27, 1938.
In 1876 he moved to Paris. In 1881 he returned permanently to Krakow. The subject matter of his watercolors and oil paintings is diverse. He painted images of historical battles related to the history of Turkey, oriental genre scenes, landscapes, and portraits of Sultans.
The curator of the exhibition Mehmet Lütfi Şen said Ottoman sultans always dealt with art and painting. “Today we discover a painter after 137 years.”
It is known that Abdülaziz took painting lessons when he was young, said Şen.
“In the past Abdülaziz never signed his own paintings and this is known for sure and we know that he had given his paintings to Polish painter Stanislav Chlebowski, while he was leaving Istanbul,” said Şen, adding that Chlebowski had kept them.
Later on these paintings were unearthed at National Museum of Poland, he added. “The museum has bought these paintings from the painter’s family and added them to their collection and we have traced them and obtained the permissions to display them.”
After we saw the sketches we discovered that these paintings were part of the Abdülaziz paintings because they matched with the national museum collections of Turkey, added Şen, noting that experts also worked on them and discovered that these paintings belonged to Abdülaziz.
Ömer Faruk Şerifoğlu, an art history expert said the oil on canvas paintings belonged to Abdülaziz.
About National CollectionsThere are 70,000 artifacts in the inventory of the national palaces and among the objects to be displayed in the museum are kitchen tools, dinner sets, textile materials, manuscripts, lightning and heating tools and historical carpets.
Nearly 15,000 artifacts in the inventory can be seen in the museums. The rest is protected in a very modern depot, which has been produced with the latest technology. Researchers, experts and history buffs can see these artifacts.
It is possible to learn about the life of sultans from a book, but those who are curious about their shaving tools, their children’s dresses and their education, can see the answers with their own eyes at the national palaces collection for many experts.
Abdülaziz era and Ottoman Empire
Born at Istanbul’s Eyüp Palace in 1830,
Abdülaziz received an Ottoman education but was nevertheless an ardent
admirer of the material progress that was made in the West. The Sultan
took an interest in documenting the Sultanate. He was also interested in
literature and was also a classical music composer. Some of his
compositions have been collected in the album “European Music at the
Ottoman Court” by the London Academy of Ottoman Court Music. The biggest
achievement of Abdülaziz was to modernize the Ottoman Navy. In 1875,
the Navy had 21 battleships and 173 warships of other types, ranking as
the third largest navy in the world after the British and French
navies. He established the first Ottoman railroad network and Sirkeci
Train Station in Constantinople, terminus of the Orient Express.
Impressed by the museums in London, Paris
and Vienna, he established the Istanbul Archaeology Museum. Under
Abdülaziz’s reign, Turkey’s first postage stamps were issued in 1863,
and The Ottoman Empire
joined the Universal Postal Union in 1875 as a founding member. He was
made the 756th Knight of the Order of the Garter in 1867 and the 127th
Grand Cross of the Order of the Tower and Sword.
