Dr. Tarkan OKÇUOĞLU(ĠÜ) HAZĠRAN 2010 ÖNSÖZ Bu yüksek lisans tez çalışmasında İngilizlerin gözünden Türk sanatını incelemek amaçlanmaktadır. Bu döneme kadar akademik çalışmalarda Türk Sanatı farklı şekillerde ortaya konmuş ve değerli çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Batılı yabancı uzmanlar ve araştırmacılar tarafından yapılan birçok değerli araştırmalar günümüze kadar gelmistir. Osmanlı İmparatorluğu döneminden bu yana dünyadaki en büyük imparatorluklardan biri olan Britanya Krallığı ile geçmişten günümüze politik ilişkiler devam etmektedir. Bu tez sadece Britanya Krallığı olarakda adlandırılan İngiltere‟deki yayınevlerine ait İngiliz Sanat Dergileri ve bu dergilerde yayınlanan kitap tanıtım yazıları ve makalelerin incelenmesi ve değerlendirilmesi yolu ile bu dergilerdeki Türk Sanatı çalışmalarına odaklanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada geçmişten günümüze politik, ekonomik ve haliyle toplumsal ilişkileri tarihin gelişiminde önemli rol oynamış olan Britanya Krallığı ve Osmanlı İmparatorluğu‟nun kültürel ve sanatsal algı ve etkileşimleri konusunda bundan sonraki bir veri ve bakış açısı sağlamak ve İngiltere kökenli yayınlarda Türk Sanatı‟nın nasıl konumlandırıldığı ile ilgili bir kavramsal çerçeve sunmak ümit edilmektedir. Bu tür çalışmaların tarihte ve günümüzde, ilişki içinde bulunan diğer etkili ülkeler için de yapılması, Türk Sanatı‟nın etkileri ve dünyadaki yansımalarını anlamak açısından yarar sağlayabilir. Bu araştırmada bana yönlendirmesi ve bilgisi ile destek olan tez danışmanım Sayın Doç Dr. Aygül Ağır‟a, Londra‟da bulunulan sürede The School Of Oriental And African Studies ve Victoria& Albert Muzesi, National Art Library literatür araştırması imkânı sunan kütüphane yönetimine, beni destekleyen Sayın Dr. Nihan Yıldırım‟a, A.Mark Joyeux‟ye, Aslı Özkaya‟ya, sevgili aileme ve bu çalışmada kaynakçada adı geçen tüm araştırmacılara teşekkürlerimi sunarım. iii iv ĠÇĠNDEKĠLER ÖNSÖZ ....................................................................................................................... iii ĠÇĠNDEKĠLER .......................................................................................................... v KISALTMALAR ...................................................................................................... xi ġEKĠL LĠSTESĠ ...................................................................................................... xiii ÇĠZELGE LĠSTESĠ ................................................................................................. xv ÖZET ....................................................................................................................... xvii SUMMARY ............................................................................................................. xix 1.

  • Narratives of Display at the National Gallery, London
    NARRATIVES OF DISPLAY AT THE NATIONAL GALLERY, LONDON CHARLES SAUMAREZ SMITH When I was Director of the National Gallery, I was, for obvious reasons, interested in issues relating to the display of the collection: how the collection had been displayed in the past, what was the rationale for the display in the present and what should be the method of display in the future.1 Described thus baldly, identifying the methods of display at the National Gallery might seem a relatively straightforward, intellectual project, based on the description as to how the galleries looked in the past, how they look now, and how they might be made to look in the future. But, the task was not easy. The principal reason is that those involved in organizing displays in the past have often not bothered to describe why they have hung pictures in a particular way: they have presumed that the public and their fellow practitioners (in other words, those in the art world and curators) will recognize how and why pictures have been hung the way they have, without it needing to be explained. There are period orthodoxies in which there is an established consensus as to how galleries should look and on the relationship between the art and the display, which has militated against a clear description of aims and intentions. Methods of display are often loaded with a great deal of supplementary baggage about the power relations within the institution, who is permitted to undertake the display, and what their attitude is towards the public and to the relationship between the experience of art and the need for additional contextual information.

It had the primary aim of providing new galleries for the Early Renaissance collection. It was also intended to give a new outward-looking face for the Gallery with expanded public facilities, including a larger temporary exhibition space. However, this space has been much criticised for its basement location and resulting lack of natural light. The rooms are limited in size and some are irregular in shape which make it difficult to install larger works and to provide enough viewing space for visitors to popular shows.
