#SlutWalkNYC
USA, 2013, Blu-Ray, Color, 5’, English
Director: Therese Shechter
“Women should avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimized.” This quote by a Toronto police officer galvanized feminist women to create the first SlutWalk in 2011, unleashing a global political movement.
Often mis-characterized as a march demanding the right to dress like ‘sluts’, its true aim is to shed the stereotypes and dangerous myths that justify rape and whitewash the guilty. The film documents New York SlutWalk empowering for some and contraversial and exclusionary for others.

Among the most interesting themes in the oeuvre of Prassinos are cypresses, trees, and Turkish landscapes. The cypress woods in Üsküdar he saw every time he stepped out on the terrace of their house in İstanbul or the trees in Petits Champs must have been strong images of childhood for Prassinos.
As artisanship became a part of artistic practices with the blurring of art and craft, the use of traditional motifs has also flourished. In this context, how are these motifs currently structured or designed beyond their traditional connotations?
Pera Museum presents an exhibition of French artist Félix Ziem, one of the most original landscape painters of the 19th century.
