Pera Museum Learning Programs organizes workshops that bring together different disciplines with the “Language of the Image, Form of the Word” program for participants aged 18 and over, parallel to the Samih Rifat: “Much Is to Be Done” exhibition. Samih Rifat's works cover a wide range of creative fields, from architectural photographs to watercolor drawings, translations and notes. In this program, the diversity of production at the focus of the exhibition is experienced through guided exhibition tours and hands-on workshops.
Accompanied by artists and instructors, the workshops encourage participants to reflect on memory, space, visual expression and language, and allow them to develop their own forms of production inspired by Rifat's intellectual background. The workshops offer a sharing space where each individual blends their observations, comments and experiences with creativity.
Tickets for workshops can be purchased from Biletix.
There is a 20% discount for Pera Museum Friendship Program members.

"Much Is to Be Done" is an exhibition that departs from the both ethically and aesthetically uncompromising work of Samih Rifat, an important figure in the world of culture renowned for his photographs, translations, documentaries and writings. We could describe his work as “an act of art and thought”, and this exhibition aims to expand his creative process in order to understand this intellectual of “a thousand arts”, who sadly passed away too early.
Although mythological themes are not commonly encountered in Turkish painting, it is possible to see variations of widespread themes such as the Venus at her Toilet.
Henryk Weyssenhoff, author of landscapes, prints, and illustrations, devoted much of his creative energies to realistic vistas of Belorussia, Lithuania, and Samogitia. A descendant of an ancient noble family which moved east to the newly Polonised Inflanty in the 17th century, the young Henryk was raised to cherish Polish national traditions.
A series of small and rather similar nudes Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu and Eren Eyüboğlu produced in the early 1930s almost resemble a ‘visual conversation’ that focus on a pictorial search. It is also possible to find the visual reflections of this earlier search in the synthesis Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu reached with his stylistic abstractions in the 1950s.
