Baks1 Museum And Research Centre For Folk Art -
Bayraktar (Baksi), Bayburt
Written by Administrator
Wednesday, 13 February 2008
Baks1 MüzesiBayburt is one of 81 provinces of Turkey,
probably the smallest, but with a long history that
dates back 2,400 years. Dede Korkut lived there many
years ago, giving a reason for the people of Bayburt
to stage a festival there every year.
Coruh river, which originates in the valleys of
Erzurum, goes through the center of the city,
meandering along the rugged mountains towards the
Black Sea and passes in front of a village called
Bayraktar, once known as Baksi. Overlooking the Coruh
valley and high on a mountain near the village of
Baksi, a Museum and a Cultural Centre is coming to
life, like no other in Anatolia.
Dean of the Fine Arts Department at Marmara
University, Prof Husamettin Kocan, who was born in
Baksi, is the creator of the Baksi Museum and Research
Center of Folk Art. Melih Fereli, Chairman of the
Executive Committee of Project 4L at the Istanbul
Museum of Contemporary Art, states the following in a
catalogue, ''Shaman's Diary'': ''Nowadays, one should
really have been at the small village of Bayraktar in
Bayburt, in order to experience the euphoria on the
occasion of a very significant turn being taken in
the process comprising efforts that focus on bringing
back the enlightened days of Anatolia, and to witness
a truly universal statement being made''.
The first section of the Museum opened on August 19,
2004, which I missed. On October 30, I drove 184 kms
from Erzurum on a rainy day to see the visionary
place. There is an incredible view of the Coruh river
from the grounds where the beautiful Museum with guest
rooms and several small buildings with stone facade
have already been completed. The work on the main
building is expected to begin in 2005 that will
include workshops for the villagers.
The Museum is being developed privately, which will
eventually include several buildings housing an
Exhibition Center for Permanent Collection, a
Conference Hall, Guesthouses, Ethnographic Museum,
space for Traveling Exhibitions and Workshops. Some of
the paintings donated by 123 artists (3 times the
lucky number 41) are already on the walls of the
Museum, which were recently exhibited as ''Shaman's
Diary'' in Istanbul. There are guest rooms in the two
level Museum, where visitors can stay, keeping up with
the long lost tradition of ''village guest houses'' of
long by-gone days.
As Husamettin Kocan writes in the preface to the 300
page catolog, ''Shaman's Diary'', the Centre will also
perform as an organized economic operations and states
that ''This project aims further by trying to
construct a basis for all that has been forgotten, all
that has been lost, all that has been dreamt by those
that have left behind their homes.''
The village of Bayraktar is home to 480 inhabitants
who live in 80 homes and make a living with
agriculture and livestock, like most of the villages
accross Anatolia. Bayraktar has seen the migration of
many of its residents to nearby cities like Bayburt
and to far away metropolitans like Istanbul. It is
most likley that there are people from Bayraktar who
have migrated to Europe and the Americas.
Ahu Antmen writes in the same catalogue that the Baksi
project is about the places and the people left
behind, but it is also about people who built new
lives in new places, and states that, ''It is a
project about what it means to look from far away, and
it aims to bring an alternative to just looking.'' Ahu
Antmen also states that ''The baksi Museum and
Research center of Folk Art is a project about artists
coming together, about art and what it means in a more
social sense, and about certain ideals shared by
artists. That dseserted land on top of a mountain, or
any deserted mountain, anywhere, seems much less
lonely, much less silent now.''
The Baksi Museum and Research Centre is an incredible
place high on the hills overlooking the Coruh river
which will mark its place on the map of Anatolia.
