“Proposals” 12 July -12 August at Aydın Kebap

A long-term guest of the Gülensu-Gülsuyu shop with the project “Is another kind of architecture possible?” Burak Delier will present in Aydın Kebap the ideas he gathered during the month of May. In addition to being architectural proposals, the simple sketches in the exhibition also demonstrate the necessities and desires of the neighborhood. If this work can make even a small contribution to the neighborhood through the discussions it provokes, it means that the project has achieved its goal.

What is the use of a museum under invasion?

Gülsuyu Gülensu Dükkan hosted an event by YNKB on the 11 June 2010. YNKB, 2002 Kopenhag, is an artist collective that started in Ydre Norrebro, Kopenhagen. It consists of Thomas Ostergaard, Kirsten Dufour, “Stoffer” Michael Christensen, Anders Hvam Waago, Tine Tvergaard, Joen Vedel, Finn Thybo Andersen, Eva La Cour and Ninna Poulsen. Instead of being confined to elitist art centers the group prefers to do cultural and art events in neighborhoods where there is actual human settlement and they base their artistic production over a humanistic dimension, collective research and an intimate, generous and open relationship based on participation. From this big group, Cultural Agencies invited Kirsten and Finn to Gülsuyu. The reason for the invitation was the People’s Museum project that they did in the Bir Zeit village in Palestine. YNKB did the project together with another artist group Parfyme as well as Palestinian artists and village locals. The “People’s Museum” that opened on October 9, 2009 is still open to visitors. Project’s mobile vitrine hosted the photos of the “People’s Museum” items, some examples of the collection. After the presentation we ate the mixed vegetable meal that was prepared in the dükkan and in Aydın Kasap, then cooked at the neighbour kitchen which was the receipe from Rıza Bey.

Dükkan's long term guest: Burak Delier

 Let’s Build Together!

Is there any other possibility for architecture?

Architecture has often been used as a tool of regulation for the state and capital.

However architecture should not only be seen as a regulation tool from above.

How can we think of architecture in a different way? What are our desires and

necessities unrealized because of the lack of energy and lack of opportunity in

our daily lives? What are the examples of practices of architecture that have

risen out of the bottom (personal and/or collective), out of our own desires and

necessities?

Burak Delier a long time guest artist of the Cultural Agencies is looking

for answer to these questions since May through an observation of the

neighborhood’s residents, proposals and participations. The first meeting took

place on Thursday, May 6 at 16:00 hours at the Gülsuyu Gülensu Shop.

23 April Shop --- 2010

 

We met at the dükkan with the neighbourhood kids for the 23 April Childrens day; Boris Vassallucci with his violin and his friend Louis Coulange companied the kids while they made the houses they want to live in with paper boxes. We watched the animation movie Look Up!, in which an old man carries his house to his dream land with the help of the flying baloons.
