Life is hard for Zia: He’s recently broken up with his girlfriend, he is misunderstood by his parents and oh yeah… he’s just killed himself and is now living in the “afterlife.” It’s an afterlife of menial jobs, dingy bars, old girlfriends and bad public transport. Once he gets there, Zia makes two friends: A clever, oddly charming Russian rocker and a sexy intelligent ingénue, who is determined to prove she was sent to the afterlife by a cruel quirk of fate. Together, in a rickety orange station wagon held together by masking tape, this impromptu family hits the road. A film filled with unexpected miracles and absurd humor which shows just how precious and surprising one’s life truly is.
Organized in collaboration with the Giacometti Foundation, Paris, the exhibition explores Giacometti’s prolific life, most of which the artist led in his studio in Montparnasse, through the works of his early period as well his late work, including one unfinished piece. Devoted to Giacometti’s early works, the first part of the exhibition demonstrates the influence of Giovanni Giacometti, the father of the artist and a Swiss Post-Impressionist painter himself, on Giacometti’s output during these years and his role in his son’s development.
Following the opening of his studio, “El Chark Societe Photographic,” on Beyoğlu’s Postacılar Caddesi in 1857, the Levantine-descent Pascal Sébah moves to yet another studio next to the Russian Embassy in 1860 with a Frenchman named A. Laroche, who, apart from having worked in Paris previously, is also quite familiar with photographic techniques.
The exhibition Look at Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection examines portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Through the exhibition we will be sharing about the artists and sections in Look At Me!. This time we are sharing about Janine Antoni , exhibited under the section “The Conventions of Identitiy”!
