The wind continued in our favor, and we reached
the Dardanelles in eight or ten days; the Turkish barges met us there
to carry us to Constantinople.The sight offered by that city at the
distance of a league is truly wonderful; and I believe that a more
magnificent panorama cannot be found in any part of the world. It was
that splendid view which was the cause of the fall of the Roman, and of
the rise of the Greek empire. Constantine the Great, arriving at
Byzantium by sea, was so much struck with the wonderful beauty of its
position, that he exclaimed, “Here is the proper seat of the empire of
the whole world!” and in order to secure the fulfillment of his
prediction, he left Rome for Byzantium. If he had known the prophecy of
Horace, or rather if he had believed in it, he would not have been
guilty of such folly. The poet had said that the downfall of the Roman
Empire would begin only when one of the successors of Augustus bethought
him removing the capital of the empire to where it had originated. The Troad is not far distant from Thrace.

In the midst of space, human space, we make our measurements and with these measurements we create space, the space between our instruments. - Michel Houellebecq
The project in several aspects deals with archiving as an artistic method. During the four weeks of our stay at halka art project we will create a growing exhibition using strategies of overlapping, reorganizing and layering corresponding with the organism of the city of Istanbul. The working process is based on analyses of the social, cultural, spatial and esthetic dimensions of the city, including artist talks, screenings and field trips. The program and the growing exhibition involving local and foreign artists will be open to the public. The project phase in Istanbul creates a platform for discussion and intercultural exchange extending a transnational artist network.
The project in several aspects is initiated by:
Antje Feger, Benjamin F. Stumpf, Jana Müller and Emanuel Mathias.
