Museums as Remembrance, prepared by BETÜL ATEŞ

1. Museums as Remembrance
Orhan Pamuk,The Museum of Innocence

2. The novelty of Orhan Pamuk, who holds the Nobel Prize for Literature, is generally postmodern.

3. Postmodern museums
-reject reality, classic
-suggest fragmented stories
Since the thing museums presented is not real, but a
product of imagination, reality is set aside for a
while and the time we perceive is altered totally
since they have power to bring the past into the
present.

4. The Museum of Innocence is a museum in a
19th-century house in Istanbul created by
Pamuk himself as a companion to his novel The
Museum of Innocence.
Imagine a place where the words in a
novel turn into real-like objects.
The first of its kind in the world.

Real museums are the places where Time
becomes Space. Man perceives Time as
something more unspecified and intangible,
while Space is more comprehensible and
concrete concept.
Museums affects on the way we perceive time and the moments we live.
