Istanbul, Will you still love tomorrow is a photographic journey through a black-and-white Istanbul, far from tourist clichés. Jehsong Baak set out to capture the tender moments, encounters and skin-touching of the people of Istanbul in this city at the crossroads of Asia and Europe. Cultures cross throughout the book, oscillating between tradition and modernity, religion and secularism. Jehsong Baak’s gentle eye brings together the differences and antagonisms of contemporary Istanbul, where the great tenderness of the Turkish people still prevails. This book is a true declaration of love to the city and its inhabitants.
