A priceless record and album of Turkish contemporary art. Up to now--other than a handful of names--the west has known very little about Turkish contemporary artists and their work. In this book, her album and memoir, art gallery owner Mine Ozman writes about 100 of the artists who drove the Turkish art scene in the 1980s and 1990s and provides us with valuable insights into their art and their personalities. 170 selected photographs of their works are beautifully reproduced in this album, along with black and white and color photographs of the artists and other members of Turkey's art circle and various memorabilia from the gallery. Because she also tells her own personal story and the stories of her family, the book becomes a mirror onto Turkey's transformation as it emerged from an outdated Empire of the Near East to a modern, democratic Republic that is solidly part of Europe.
