Artist: Gurwann Tran Van Gie
France, 60’, 2015
French with Turkish subtitles
Gurwann Tran Van Gie has had a most unusual journey, to say the least. Hypnotist by training, he is also a director and actor who regularly works for radio and television, where he likes to create funny and poetic characters. At times he combines his artistic creation with his practice of Ericksonian hypnosis, developed in the United States by Milton Erickson. Gurwann Tran Van Gie tackles the complex subject of people’s integrity, contemplating the integrity of four people interrogated under hypnosis.
The director will be present at the March 12 screening.
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.
In his book exploring the cultural history of souvenirs, Rolf Potts discusses how such objects assume meaning through personal stories: Objects turn into memories with the stories they hold.
I remembered a game as I was waiting in the passenger lounge for the ferry to arrive just a few minutes ago. A game we used to play at home when I was young, in my country that is very far away from here, a relic from the distant past; I don’t even remember how we used to play it. The kind of game that makes me feel a thousand times lonelier than I already am among the crowd waiting to get on the ferry.
