Istanbul as an Endless Place of 'Urban Articulation' // Article

Page 1


IAPS, is an international organization involving academics and practitioners from the disciplines of environment and behavior. The organization includes environmental psychology, architecture, geography, urban design, sociology, interior architecture, landscape architecture, anthropology, environment and urban planning. This formation encourages the interaction and exchange between individuals and the socio-physical environment that includes both the built and natural areas around them. *The IAPS-CS Working Network is a scientific organization independent from ‘place’ and ‘institutions’ within the scope of IAPS “International Association for People-Environment Studies”. The network aims to identify the problems caused by the interactions between culture and space, establish the relationship between theory and practice, and search for solutions in an interdisciplinary framework. As well as in theoretical and applied studies, it aims to address these issues in the process of architectural education. The Network objectives to establish a relationship between theory and practice and the establishment of a communication network between researchers, also organizes international and national scientific meetings and publishing. http://www.iaps-association.org http://www.iaps-culturespace.com iapscultureandspacenetwork@gmail.com 2

An article competition is to be held as a part of IAPS-CS Network activities. Participants are expected to work on the main theme “ISTANBUL AS AN ENDLESS PLACE OF URBAN ARTICULATION’’ with a focus on the keywords such as articulatability, randomness, and spontaneity. Istanbul still continues to be a city, which; • • •

at times faces ‘random’ interventions, in others ‘preplanned’ ones, consequently, transforms at times ‘spontaneous’, in others ‘compulsory’ ways, and where social and spatial patterns that emerge naturally or artificially in urban space at times increase and spread by ‘articulation’, in others act ‘rigid’, introvert or decrease.

In this context, Istanbul, which gets ‘articulated’ as a result of every interference with the impact of social, economic, political and technological dynamics, does not represent only a morphological transformation; it also requires the specification of a social process which entirely transforms each and every local, urban, immigrant and ‘new urban’ individual’s way of living. Eventually, articles and proposals within the framework of the competition are expected to bring about a comprehensive discussion about urban articulations, intervention forms, all urban articulation processes and their physical and social dimensions.

main theme


The 4th IAPS-Culture & Space Network – Culture and Space Meeting invites young designers, thinkers who generate ideas on the city, academics, undergraduate and graduate students to analyze and interpret the multi-layered and patterned structure of the ‘Palimpsest’ city of Istanbul that continues to undergo rapid changes and transformations for the purpose of supporting formal architectural education by means of informal activities. Participants who are to join and experience this scientific research process in literary, interactive and experimental manners are expected to investigate the city of Istanbul in terms of its ‘articulatability’. As a “palimpsest” city, Istanbul, which is in a constant interaction with a complex system of interconnected networks, is being transferred to the future with additional new layers that metamorphose in each second and are articulated and reticulated with the old in an adjoining, superposed and intertwined way. Cities that shape themselves every day in different ways gather the traces of the past, the present, and the future. With its multi-layered structure, Istanbul is home to produce, discuss, consume and reconstruct several propositions from the past to the present day. Here, it becomes crucial to investigate the concepts of ‘palimpsest city’, ‘palimpsest identity’ and ‘palimpsest in architecture’. The concept of palimpsest allows multi-dimensional readings when used as a metaphor in this context for places and cities (Turgut, 2018) where it is possible to read the superposed traces of the past, present and the future. The investigation and discussion of the concept of ‘urban articulation’ in every aspect within the context of Istanbul form the focus of the 4th IAPS-CS Network, Culture & Space Meeting. At this point, the relationship between urban articulation and ‘randomness, spontaneity and articulatability’ is essential. istanbul as an endless “urban articulation” place

Fahrelnissa Zeid, “My Hell” (1951), (Raad bin Zeid / Istanbul Museum of Modern Art)

In the urban context, articulatability denotes the capability of being gathered, articulated and transformed. The concept of articulation which is considered an analogy in urban research is derived from articular of French origin and it means “to connect one piece with another”, “the act of being articulated into something”, and “the connection/relationship between two parts” . This particular concept is usually borrowed in art and architecture in related to the relationship, position or disposition of the masses at various scales. Fahrelnissa Zeid’s “My Hell”, which demonstrates her mental reservoir and the articulation of the various figurative forms influenced by the Middle East and Europe, stands out to be one of the best examples for the concept of articulation.

Although articulation conceptually means the perfect and harmonious formation and regulation of a chain by the articulation of the parts belonging to a whole or set, this relationship is debated on a ground consisting of many more conflicts when it is discussed in the context of urban studies. The existing physical, social, political, economic and environmental dynamics of a city, the actors who perform or stimulate the articulation, and the time factor brings about the possibility of adding a new piece to the city. Any possibility also bears the potential of a new separation, disorder, transformation, and conflict. When questioning how the intervention is to have an impact on the city and how it is to form a relationship with the existing situation, it should be kept in mind that the city is not only a physical built environment but also a living entity of social and cultural value. Any direct, indirect, voluntary and involuntary interventions render Istanbul a field of study for the concept of “urban” articulation. Scrutinized within the framework of an urban reality, all parts of Istanbul which are sometimes intertwined, articulated or separated, and its natural tendency of allowing new combinations and formations makes the city the focus of an endless design practice. As a kind of multiplicity environment, the city is multiplied and articulated in an endless spiral loop. A city with such multi-layered and multidimensional structure also becomes an important field of study for the acquisition of collective urban and spatial experiences and productions. At this point, while the theme examines the new lifestyles and the transforming mental processes which the urban-related situations that suddenly and coincidently or deliberately and systematically emerge, consume and produce within the process, it brings ‘the endlessly articulable state of Istanbul’ up for discussion through different concepts. In this regard, it is important to examine Istanbul as a harmonious or incompatible combination of large and small pieces, just like Fahrelnissa Zeid’s masterpiece.

The following concepts are to guide the activities at the 4th IAPS Culture & Space Network Meeting where the close relationship between Istanbul’s multi-layered and multidimensional state as an endless example of urban articulation and “design”.

Rules of Participation Graduated young researchers and students (undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate) of Departments of Architecture and Design Faculties (Architecture, Interior Architecture, Urban and Regional Planning, Landscape Architecture, Industrial Design, Communication Design, Graphic Design etc.) can participate to the events individually or as a team. Created/suggested teams can be formed by affiliating partners or consultants from fields such as psychology, sociology, and so on. 18
