Ertuðrul Günay/Minister of Culture and
Tourism
“The village of Endless
Gratitude is a great
invention. It draws in the
artists of Istanbul. It draws
in artists from Europe. The
name and image of a
country should be shaped with projects
like this. I saw the works in progress and
gave my word: I will do everything I can in
support of it.”
Ahmet Sever/Chief Advisor Media Relations to
the President
“I support this project from
the heart. It brings back art
and culture to the village
where I was born. I have
seen that this project of my
brother Mehmet Taşdiken is
affecting everyone's feelings like mine.”
Prof.Dr. M.Rifat Çelebi/Dean/Doðuþ
Univ../ Deputy Chief of the World
Association of Adobe
“I have visited the buildings
in the Village of
Endless Gratitude which is
being built by Mehmet
Taşdiken. I have seen no
flaws, this I say this with pride and I
congratulate him.”

en and women of
culture and art are coming
from Turkey and all over the
world to the "Village of
Endless Gratitude" not to
show off, but to be like a
villager.
Not to bring culture, but to
find shelter in the profound
culture of Anatolia
Not to be saviours, but to be
saved.
Not to take, but to pay their
debt.
They are coming to the rich
and profound history of art,
music, poetry and
architecture.
To find themselves. To renew
and revive themselves with
their talent and skills.
To be blessed with the earth,
to be purified with the water,
to become alive with the air
and to learn with its men.
They are coming from a life
narrowed by patterns and all
kinds artificiality to trueness
and verity.
They are coming to our 1000
year old adventure of
creation and production and
the land of empires that
lasted for thousands of years
in Endless Gratitude.
