Pera Museum continues to collaborate with national and international education institutions to introduce young artists’ and designers’ works to audiences. As part of the Confrontation exhibit held on the 25th anniversary of Yeditepe University, events bring panelists from different disciplines together.
The talk titled “Design, Designer and Fashion: The Past, The Present and The Future” will focus on the questions “What is design and when did it begin?”, “Who is a designer?”, “What is fashion?”, and “Can fashion be designed?” and discuss the academic and industrial developments in textile and fashion.
This meeting will be held on Zoom in Turkish. Reservations are required.

The Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation’s Orientalist Painting Collection includes two children’s portraits that are often featured in exhibitions on the second floor of the Pera Museum. These portraits both date back to the early 20th century, and were made four years apart. One depicts Prince Abdürrahim Efendi, son of Sultan Abdulhamid II, while the figure portrayed on the other is Nazlı, the daughter of Osman Hamdi Bey.
