• About the Exhibition

    Within the context of a graduate course and an undergraduate design studio, Grandbazaar became the focus of the urban research & reading area; a discovery field where experiences of the place experimented, presented and re-presented. With its ever articulating and changing physical and fictive structure, without hiding its imperfect embodiment, the Grandbazaar is a constantly evolving "playground" in the thoughts of coordinators and students of this project. The project presents the place analysis, living sections and audio-visual works of a group of graduate and undergraduate students from Istanbul Technical University Faculty of Architecture.

Grandbazaar // TuesdayBazaar

by Dinemis Kusuluoglu
Grand bazaar is a formation of function which is integrated to urban landscape of Istanbul. The journey of the bazaar began with one “bedesten” and goes on with nearly 64 street spaces. These streets are covered in time regarding to requirements. Today, I find the local markets very similar to represent the Grand bazaar in urban landscape. Especially the appearance of old Tuesday bazaar was very close to Grand bazaar. The canvases which are stretched regarding to requirement of climate is identical to Grand bazaar covered streets. Grand bazaar is not alike to contemporary shopping centers as none of them is as integrated as grand bazaar to city’s landscape. Grand bazaar is not a building; it is a whole of integrated streets. This is why it has a mark on Istanbul’s urban landscape. In similar, old Tuesday bazaar was using the streets and had a place in Kadýköy’s urban identity. This movie is about a search of a match for Grand Bazaar in today.
