August 1 - September 17, 2017
Pera Museum’s Summmer '17 exhibition brought together the products of the creative world of children and teams who participated in the summer workshops inspired by the Doublethink: Double vision and José Sancho exhibitions. Including the works of three separate age groups (4-6, 7-12, and 13-17), the exhibition added its own color to Pera Education Workshop from August 1 to September 17.
The Summmer '17 exhibition included three-dimensional animal and aquarium designs made using “magic putty” and paper plates, and drawings made using crayons, ink, and finger paint at the workshops for the 4-6 age group. The works created at the workshop designed especially for the 7-12 age group included fish forms made by shaping wire, wind chimes made with soda bottle caps, and designs for clocks, business cards, comics, and book covers, made using a variety of material. The oversized text created by printing letters on sheets of paper at the workshop for the 13-17 age group directed by Hera Büyüktaşçıyan as part of the summer workshops was one of the outstanding works of the exhibition.

A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
In his book exploring the cultural history of souvenirs, Rolf Potts discusses how such objects assume meaning through personal stories: Objects turn into memories with the stories they hold.
