Leaving a colorful mark on the future
As January 19th approaches, the children who participated in the "Breathing with Colors" event held at Sebat Apartment will remember Sarkis’ works, which offer profound meanings to viewers, even years from now. The 23.5 Hrant Dink Memory Site was opened to visitors in 2019 at Agos newspaper’s former office in Sebat Apartment. Designed with the memory and symbolic significance of the building in mind, the space offers visitors a unique emotional and experiential journey with the realistic texture of its materials.
Ankara’s first photographers
Cevahirciyan, who was an apprentice to Abdullah Brothers in Istanbul, established the first photography studio in Ankara in 1889 or 1890. Until the mid-1910s, he photographed events such as groundbreaking ceremonies of official buildings, inaugurations and official celebrations. Tsolag, one of the Dildilyan Brothers, apprenticed under Cevahirciyan, who is believed to have had a studio in Sivas before Ankara, and learnt the profession from him.
