We are pleased to invite you to the workshop "Cool Istanbul:
Urban Enclosures and Resistances" to be held in SALT Galata, Istanbul,
Turkey, on November 7-8, 2013.
This workshop aims to discuss the urban issues related to the
imaginations of Istanbul as a cool city as it is produced, consumed and
performed. We would like to focus on the imaginations of the city as it
is produced by city marketing agencies, featured on the travel sections
of newspapers, as it appears in the discourses of local and central
governments and as it is consumed by tourists. We also would like to
highlight the ways in which “cool Istanbul” is performed in everyday
life by those who live in, pass through, visit, experience and live its
spaces.
Please see attached the flyer attached for the workshop
program.
We look forward to seeing you there.
