    Once upon a time in Russia
    (Sabancı Üniversitesi Sakıp Sabancı Müzesi, 2019) Berktay, Halil; Berktay, Halil; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
    The ‘Dreaming the Future. Russian Avant-garde Art and Design’ exhibition does not only focus on the dramatic changes and radical developments that happened during first quarter of the 20th century and prepared the groundwork for intellectual and artistic progress, not just within the Russian artistic culture, but it is designed to hold a mirror to the effect on world art. The exhibition shows the Russian avant-garde artists that in the early 1900s tried to introduce art as a lifechanging power, the ground-breaking work of the artists in this period where the reformist atmosphere had been brought about by the October Revolution in 1917, and the social design they tried to put into practice supported by the new regime and also the wide boundaries of the future they dreamed of. The exciting technological developments and industrialisation that occurred in the early 20th century turned the avant-garde artists towards science and overcoming the boundaries of the earth, dreams of space reflected the beliefs the artists had in the future and this is very vividly reflected in the works displayed in this exhibition. One of the world’s most important Russian Avant-Garde collections, the George Costakis Collection at Thessaloniki State Museum of Contemporary Art forms the basis of the ‘Dreaming the Future. Russian Avant-Garde Art and Design’ exhibition. The George Costakis Collection of Russian Avant-Garde collected with great passion by George Costakis and secured for future generations, contain works by important artists which are part of the exhibition including Kazimir Malevich, the creator of art history’s iconic Black Square, Vladimir Tatlin, the pioneer of a new period of artistic theory where he obscured the boundaries between art and production, Alexander Rodchenko the courageous pioneer of photography, painting, sculpture and graphic art. Again, from the George Costakis Collection are works by representatives of the many female artist of the period such as Olga Rozanova whose work was based on interaction between text and depiction, Lyubov Popova who with her set designs contributed to the transformation of plays into the language of the theatre, and Natalia Goncharova who turned towards Russian folk art and undertook a determining role in Russian Avant-garde. The exhibition, ‘Dreaming the Future. Russian Avant-garde Art and Design’ is the first time the works of all the big names representing this turning point in 20th century art history come together in Turkey.

    Empire vs nation, despair vs hope at Gallipoli
    (İbn Haldun Üniversitesi, 2018) Berktay, Halil; Berktay, Halil; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
    Why does Gallipoli loom so large in Turkey’s both social (i.e. from below) and national (i.e. more official, or from the top down) memory? First, because it is by far the single biggest war, front, campaign, expedition or indeed fused mega-battle in modern Turkish or for that matter Ottoman history. Over eight and a half months (25 April 1915 to 8/9 January 1916) of fighting on land, its total casualty figure of 251,000 outnumbers the corresponding total of 40,000 for the three-plus years (1919-22) of the National Struggle by 6:1, while its death toll is even greater in comparison -- 85-86,000 vs around 9200, which is higher than a disparity of 9:1.

    A little learning is a dangerous thing
    (İbn Haldun Üniversitesi, 2017) Berktay, Halil; Berktay, Halil; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü
    Ibn Haldun University Head of History Department Prof. Dr. Halil Berktay gave the inaugural lecture that emphasized the significance of selfcultivation to an enthusiastic group of undergraduate students on the first day of the 2017-2018 academic year: Young men and women, one way or the other, you have made it into college. Now what are you going to do with this? What is it that you want? Are you here to pursue learning? Are you here, perhaps, to search for yourselves; who you are, who you want to be or who you are supposed to be? Or are you here just to get a diploma, a certificate, some useful piece of paper, and to make an exit that way?
