Could a table set amid archival records that have been piling up since 2002 serve as a space for memory exchange, a place where the archive and experiences meet? Those who have worked for Anadolu Kültür, an organization which brings culture, arts, and civil society together in many cities around Turkey, tell us what it has achieved in 20 years. Feeding the River is an attempt to contemplate on how Turkey’s distressing issues can be addressed through arts and to rethink the significance of “keeping up against all odds” within the country’s social and political context from an “insider” perspective.
Beliefs surrounding illness and healing in Byzantium stem from the myths, astrology, and magic practiced around the Mediterranean by Jews, Egyptians, Mesopotamians, and Greeks.
“A nameless Egyptian fresco, an African idol or a vase from Crete: we should behold Pirosmani’s art among them. Only this way it is possible to conceive it genuinely … …You see Pirosmani – you believe in Georgia”.

Pera Museum presents an exhibition of French artist Félix Ziem, one of the most original landscape painters of the 19th century. The exhibition Wanderer on the Sea of Light presents Ziem as an artist who left his mark on 19th century painting and who is mostly known for his paintings of Istanbul and Venice, where the city and the sea are intertwined.
