Intimacy and entertainment, melancholy and madness, modesty and desire, birth and disappearance. Four girls, four boys. This phantasmagoria dramatically animates the faces of men and women in a fantastical and poetic atmosphere; lyrical and passionate, between Earth and Cosmos, along the way towards their Metamorphoses. Metamorphoses made its debut as a video performance presented in last year’s solo show at Hors Pistes 2014.
Pera Museum Blog is launching a new series of “Techno- Dystopia” stories in collaboration with Turkey’s Fantasy and Science Fiction Arts Association (FABISAD). The Association’s member writers are presenting newly commissioned short stories inspired by the artworks of Katherine Behar as part of the Museum’s Data’s Entry exhibition.
This life-size portrait of a girl is a fine example of the British art of portrait painting in the early 18th century. The child is shown posing on a terrace, which is enclosed at the right foreground by the plinth of a pillar; the background is mainly filled with trees and shrubs.
The exhibition “Look At Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection” examined portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and videos shaped a labyrinth of gazes that invite spectators to reflect themselves in the social mirror of portraits.
