STANDING SIDE BY SIDE WITH TURGUT UYAR'S POEMS

Nevzat Sayın's new book "thoughts, works" was published by Yapı Kredi Publications. At the launch of the book, they talked to Nevzat Sayın, Tansel Korkmaz and İhsan Bilgin about “architectural publication”. It is obvious that the number of architectural publications in Turkey are much limited.  The Architectural books published by architect offices generally describe the works of that firm in a certain period. Nevzat Sayın's book, Thoughts, Works, edited by Tansel Korkmaz, reveals not only the architectural products of the architect but also his fictional works and way of thinking. In the words of İhsan Bilgin, the sketches in the book and the scribbles that have not come to light, create a stream of consciousness. More importantly, it presents Turgut Uyar's poems and an architecture book side by side, due to the publishing house it was published in. Poems and buildings… Even though they seem far from each other, who knows, maybe a relationship can be established through this work.
