Unfortunately, The Museum of Innocence (Masumiyet Müzesi) hasn't added any spaces to their profile on The Vendry.
From the very beginnings of the project, since the 1990s, Pamuk has conceived of a novel and museum together. The novel, which is about love, is set between 1974 and the early ’00s and describes life in Istanbul between 1950 and 2000 through memories and flashbacks centered around two families – one wealthy, the other lower middle class. The museum presents what the novel’s characters used, wore, heard, saw, collected, and dreamed of, all meticulously arranged in boxes and display cabinets. It is not essential to have read the book to enjoy the museum, just as it is not necessary to have visited the museum to fully enjoy the book. But those who have read the novel will better grasp the many connotations of the museum, and those who have visited the museum will discover many nuances they had missed when reading the book. The novel was published in 2008, the museum opened in Spring 2012.
