This is Vincent Dieutre’s first feature film he directed while writing and teaching at university. An intimate, fragmented, painful, non-chronological journal of a young gay man in Rome at the end of the 1980s, Rome désolée enjoyed critical and popular success to allow Dieutre to continue inventing his cinema in the first person. A period of rehab, syringes, ex lovers, and AIDS: forging an introspective story inscribed into the metaphorical territory of these years of “desolation” and addiction.

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.
