    LOOKING INTO THE ABYSS: MISE EN ABYME PRACTICES IN CONTEMPORARY ART
    (2024.01.01) Aydin, A.; Uçar, M.
    Mise en abyme, a French term derived from the heraldry, literally means 'to place in the abyss'. The term mizanabim, which was first conceptualized by Andr & eacute; Gide in his work Journals, is a formal method applied in various branches of art, primarily literature, by making use of visual metaphors. The examples of the method known as an application method based on the nesting of images in the modern and pre -modern period have also begun to be seen in contemporary art practices after modernity. This study aims to scrutinize and analyze the mise en abyme method, which is not well known and known about, through selected examples from contemporary art practices. For this purpose, some works of art have been identified in line with the data obtained through literature review on the subject. The identified works were examined by document analysis method and information on the subject was obtained as a result of interviews with some artists. While examining the samples of the works, the works were analyzed by using D & auml;llenbach's typology of mise en abyme. As a result of the analysis and evaluation, it was tried to be revealed that mise en abyme is a method used in contemporary art practices.
