Balkon, the Turkish word for balcony, is a mediation on the city where Pamuk was born in 1952. Taken over a five-month period beginning in late 2012, the 600 pictures of ancient monuments, wooded isles and cloud-laden skies only hint at the chaos of Istanbul, which has served as a central character in much of the novelist's work.--Ayla Jean Yackley Art Newspaper Balkon's images capture one of the central cruxes of Pamuk's work: a sustained interest in distances.--Kaya Genc Art in America Much like Atget in fin-de-siecle Paris, Pamuk channeled his flanerie into a documentary mission, creating an archive of his changing city. [...] But unlike Atget, Pamuk is no dispassionate observer. His images, like his novels, are suffused with the nostalgia of a longtime resident grappling with the new reality of an old, changing city. [...] Orange, then, also reads as a eulogy for the city that has defined Pamuk's writing.--Jonah Goldman Kay Los Angeles Review of Books The photographs, arranged often in a series of two to eight per page, convey an affective aura.--Erdag Goeknar Los Angeles Review of Books
