Silent Journeys

Pera Film, in collaboration with the Hungarian Cultural Center, presents the online film program Silent Journeys.

The film program offers a selection of remarkable Hungarian animations from recent years, featuring short films such as Amok, Oliver the Giant, and Meditation at Dusk, notable for their artistic depth and striking narratives. These non-verbal films explore profound inner transformations and characters' spiritual and mental journeys in silence.

The films will be available for viewing on the Pera Museum's website from February 14 to 21.

Per legal regulations, all screenings are restricted to persons over 18 years of age unless stated otherwise.

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.

Istanbul’s Seaside Leisure: Nostalgia from Sea Baths to Beaches exhibition brought together photographs, magazines, comics, objects, and books from various private and institutional collections, and told a nostalgic story while also addressing the change and socialization of the norms of how Istanbulites used their free time. Istanbul’s Seaside Leisure was a documentary testament of the radical transformations in the Republic’s lifestyle.
