This dissertation explores the emergence of private art museums in 2000‘s in İstanbul, by focusing on three pioneering cases: Sabancı University Sakıp Sabancı Museum (Sabancı Museum), istanbul Museum of Modern Art (İstanbul Modern) and Pera Museum. The aim of this study is to trace the history of emergence of private museums in Turkey, and their construction as an organizational field (DiMaggio & Powell 1983). Inquiring how did private museums emerge in Turkey, this dissertation argues that these three private museums in Turkey emerged as an outcome of structuration processes driven by corporate interests of large conglomerates and personal interests of corporate philanthropists, and with the crucial support of precursory organizational form of philanthropic foundations founded by the respective actors.

From houses to house museums: architectural representation of different narrations
Günhan, Aslıhan; Savaş Sargın, Ayşen; Department of Architecture (2011)
The transformation of historic houses into house museums is not only a current issue within the field of museology, but also a new phenomenon for architecture. The deconstruction of the term “house museum” into “house” and “museum” and the meaning these terms acquire, have the potential to generate a new discussion in architecture. Besides being a physical dwelling unit, “house” will be interpreted as a domestic space where the inhabitants are able to personalize. A museum, on the other hand, will be approa...
