Seminar
March 9, 2024 / 10:00
Pera Museum is offering a seminar on Late Roman and Byzantine Coins for graduate students as part of Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation Anatolian Weights and Measures Collection. The seminar, which adopts an interdisciplinary approach to the science of numismatics, aims to provide theoretical and practical skills for young researchers working on the archaeology, history, art, and culture of the Late Roman and Early Byzantine periods.
The intensive one-day program consists of a seminar and a workshop. In the first part of the program, Associate Professor Dr. Aliye Erol will give a theoretical seminar on Late Roman and Byzantine coins. In the second part, there will be an applied numismatics workshop by studying the coins from the Pierre Willemart Coin Collection donated to the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation.
The seminar will be held face-to-face at the Istanbul Research Institute. The language of the program is Turkish. The program is free, and attendees outside Istanbul must pay for their accommodation and transportation.
Temporary Exhibition
As the measurement of discovery became the substance of myths, weighing and measuring, beyond being mere physical actions, became an important means of self-expression to those captivated by the universe and what lay beyond the boundaries of knowledge.

The exhibition Look at Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection examines portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times.

Pera Museum, in collaboration with Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (İKSV), is one of the main venues for this year’s 15th Istanbul Biennial from 16 September to 12 November 2017. Through the biennial, we will be sharing detailed information about the artists and the artworks.
In the works of western painters, we encounter mosques as the primary architectural elements that reflect the identity of the city of Istanbul. Often we can recognize the depicted landscape as Istanbul simply from the mosques.
