Image of Istanbul: Impact of ECoC 2010 on the City Image - Paperback
by Evinc Dogan (Author)
IMAGE OF ISTANBUL, IMPACT OF ECOC 2010 ON THE CITY IMAGE by Evinc Dogan offers a unique analysis of the city image by reading posters of a mega event in 2010. Istanbul "took the stage" as one of the three European Capital of Culture (ECoC) cities in 2010. In this spectacle, the urban spaces were projected as the theatre décor while residents and visitors became the spectators. The images of Istanbul pile up in videos and posters to show the city in every aspect in which everything becomes mishmash and the message gets lost in the chaos. While Istanbul is depicted as a mystified city through Orientalist representations, this image of Istanbul moves between the opposite ends of the contrasting pairs, and in contestation.

Graduate of Istanbul Technical University and Bogazici University, she has been a visiting research fellow at Regent's Centre for Transnational Studies, Regent's University London, Kadir Has University and the University of Belgrade.
