The Department of Fine Arts is pleased to invite Bilkent students,
\nfaculty, and friends to a lunchtime lecture by Emek Can Ecevit:<\/p>\n
Current issues on Contemporary Art from Turkey
\nThis presentation comprises three parts. Starting with a brief summary
\nof my personal academic interest on contemporary art , it continues
\nwith the main problematization of my doctoral study entitled ‘A
\nStudy on Institutionalisation of Contemporary Art from Turkey’ that
\nconcerns with identifying the determinants of the institutionalisation
\nof art in general and institutionalisation of contemporary art in
\nparticular. It focuses on the influence of the state and the private
\nsector on economics and politics of arts. The third and possibly a more
\ninteractive part covers an overall questioning of the contemporary arts
\nfrom Turkey. It starts with the problematization of the contemporary
\nartist and art initiatives from Turkey with an understanding of inner
\ncritique of the art scene on the one hand and cultural policy texts as
\nthe responsible body for policymaking in creative and cultural sectors
\nin Turkey on the other. This part also focuses on and relationally
\ndiscusses the conceptualisation of contemporary arts, its conveying
\nartistic practices as well as the role of policy makers and art
\nprofessionals shaping contemporary arts from Turkey.<\/p>\n
