Josephine Powell Collection
<\/strong>American photographer and collector Josephine Powell was one of the last great travelers of Anatolia. Born in New York in 1919, she earned her undergraduate degree from Cornell University in 1941. After living in Tasmania, Germany, and Italy, she moved to Istanbul in 1974. When she was commissioned to write a book on kilims, she realized the lack of existing research in the field and began traveling across Anatolia. Throughout the 1970s and 80s, she visited nomads (Y\u00f6r\u00fcks) and villagers, photographing their daily activities and handicrafts. Developing a profound admiration for the lives and weaving arts of rural women, she compiled a magnificent archive of photographs and field notes on textiles woven by nomadic, semi-nomadic, and settled weavers.
In the mid-1980s, she was among the founders of DOBAG (the Natural Dye Research and Development Project). She also played a role in establishing the ethnographic department of the Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts in Istanbul. In 2002, she donated her architectural photography collection to Harvard University\u2019s Fine Arts Library. Portions of her photography and ethnographic object collections are held by the British Museum, Harvard University, the Tropenmuseum (Amsterdam), and the Wereldmuseum (Rotterdam).
Just three years before her passing in 2007, she donated her collection to the Vehbi Ko\u00e7 Foundation. The collection consists of 33,000 field notes, slides, negatives, photographs, and books on Anatolian villages and Y\u00f6r\u00fck culture. The archive of 28,000 slides has been digitized by the Ko\u00e7 University Suna K\u0131ra\u00e7 Library. The donated books and journals constitute a special collection of 1,500 volumes on various aspects of Anatolian history. In 2011, ANAMED organized an exhibition based on Josephine Powell’s photographs, curated by Kimberly Hart.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
