In parallel with the exhibition In Search of Vera Molnár, Pera Film brings the iconic The Matrix series, a cornerstone of sci-fi and action cinema, to the audience.
The exhibition In Search of Vera Molnár centers on the practice of Vera Molnár, one of the pioneers of computer art, and showcases works by contemporary artists inspired by her artworks. Molnár's artistic journey, which began with simple algorithms and established her as a digital art trailblazer, reveals how creative processes can transform into systematic inquiries. Zeros and Ones bridges the relationship between algorithms in Molnár's work and those of contemporary artists inspired by her with the groundbreaking algorithmic culture and digital art of The Matrix universe.
Premiering 25 years ago, The Matrix captivated audiences with its unique digital aesthetic, visual effects, and CGI technologies, while iconic elements like its "green code" influenced digital art and popular culture. Exploring themes such as artificial intelligence, algorithms, and virtual reality with philosophical depth, the series marked a turning point for digital worlds and interactive art. All four iconic films in the series can be viewed at the Pera Museum Auditorium from January 31 to February 16.
Film screenings within this program are accessible with a discounted museum entrance ticket. Tickets can be purchased from Biletix or the reception of Pera Museum. Per legal regulations, all screenings are restricted to persons over 18 years of age unless stated otherwise.

It was a quiet night in the dessert. Even the mice weren’t around. A few LEDs blinked in the dark, and the sound of a fan filled the infinite void. The conversation cutting the silence seemed to go nowhere.
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.
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.
