Pera Film presents the Pride Month program i'm not afraid of anything, emphasizing the importance of individual identities and the richness of living beyond norms.
i'm not afraid of anything, which follows the stories of characters progressing fearlessly on their unique journeys, brings together two cult films that have become iconic with their inspiring stories, unforgettable music, mesmerizing stage performances, and dazzling costumes and makeup, connecting queer culture with mainstream cinema for a wider audience.
The program, held in the Pera Museum Auditorium from June 28 to July 10, features The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert celebrating its 30th anniversary. This film follows three drag queens' colorful and entertaining adventures in the Australian desert. Meanwhile, John Cameron Mitchell's Hedwig and the Angry Inch portrays the compelling journey of Hedwig, who emigrates from Germany to the USA with dreams of becoming a rock star during the fall of the Berlin Wall.

The exhibition “Look At Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection” examined portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and videos shaped a labyrinth of gazes that invite spectators to reflect themselves in the social mirror of portraits.
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.
The second part of exhibition illustrates Alberto Giacometti’s relations with Post-Cubist artists and the Surrealist movement between 1922 and 1935, one of the important sculptures series he created during his first years in Paris, and the critical role he played in the art scene of the period.
