TIMELESS ISTANBUL? An Interview presentation with Burçak Konukman, radio journalist, Açik Radio, Istanbul

Within the vivid and rapidly growing art scene of Istanbul and beside well known established institutions many independent art initiatives and projects with focus on critical, political, theoretical and discursive approaches are active.

Burçak Konukman and Eraslan Saglam, two radio producers established the contemporary art conversation program Zamansiz (Timeless) at Açik Radyo. The program’s general concept is to broaden the awareness of the contemporary art movements, developments and discussions in Istanbul but also on an international level.

The program which is broadcasted every week on Thursdays is part of the framework called Open Magazine. Therefore Zamansiz offers listeners different formats. Interviews with artists, curators and art relevant people, previews of upcoming events, reviews and discussion on past exhibitions and happenings as well as an additional video archive, consisting of a filmed documentary of each of the interviews builds the Zamansiz visual art conversation program. www.acikradyo.com.tr

During this presentation Burçak Konukman will introduce us to the developments within the contemporary art scene in Turkey. By introducing the weekly radio show Timeless and contextualizing the most interesting examples of his interviews, and highlighting the formats of the program, the journalist will explain how established institutions work. As an artist Burçak will be our guide through hidden art spaces and independent art projects. During the conversation we will discuss the role and give a feedback to Zamansiz (Timeless) in Istanbul today, questioning the mixture of a journalist/artist in one person for objective/subjective judgments. Public is welcome to take part in the conversation.

Burçak Konukman, artist, performer and journalist lives in Istanbul since 3 years. From October 2008 to the end of 2010 he worked as an assistant at 2010 European Capital of Culture Agency in Visual Arts Department. In 2009 he started his MA in Cultural Management.
