A beautiful monograph on Ara Güler, The Eye of Istanbul'. Turkey's best-known photographer, Ara Güler (1928 2018), depicted daily life in Turkey for three-quarters of a century. Güler captured the rough edges of Istanbul as well as all its splendour. Celebrated as The Eye of Istanbul', his poignant black-and-white images of his beloved city's inhabitants, streets and docks remain his most celebrated works. But Ara Güler was far more than that. He created reportage photography all over the world, including in Somalia, Eritrea and Afghanistan. He photographed celebrities such as Alfred Hitchcock, Salvador Dalí, Maria Callas and Sophia Loren. His versatility can also be seen in experimental collages from the early part of his career and in more recent work when he plays with light and colour.Being a testament to Turkey's rich history, A Play of Light and Shadow offers a contemporary view of Güler's work while also providing the opportunity to explore iconic and unknown parts of it. Text contributions from a range of curatorial voices, together with the Ara Güler Museum and Ara Güler Archives and Research Center, give rich insights into the meaning of his work today
