A Forest of Ink

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • August 20, 2021 / 14:00

Ink is a liquid material made of several coloring agents or dyes! It is a very easy-to-use material that needs to be handled with care. We can use it to paint a surface or write with a brush or pen. Drawing inspiration from Etel Adnan’s works that revolve around seasons, landscapes, and signs and pave the way for extensive discovery and interpretation, we blow inks through drinking straws and spread the ink across the paper to shape them as trees. The workshop is an opportunity to experience concepts such as depth, light and shadow in a painting.

Giacometti’s Final Works

Giacometti’s Final Works

Giacometti was selected for three important retrospectives at the New York Museum of Modern Art, the Tate Gallery in London and the Louisiana Museum of Art in Denmark, all of which were a great success. 

Paris Without End (1959-1965)

Paris Without End (1959-1965)

In the 60s, Alberto Giacometti paid homage to Paris, the city where he lived, by drawing its streets, cafés, and more private places like his studio and the apartment of his wife, Annette. These drawings would make up his last book, Paris sans fin (Paris Without End). 

Seaside Leisure

Seaside Leisure

Istanbul’s Seaside Leisure: Nostalgia from Sea Baths to Beaches exhibition brought together photographs, magazines, comics, objects, and books from various private and institutional collections, and told a nostalgic story while also addressing the change and socialization of the norms of how Istanbulites used their free time. Istanbul’s Seaside Leisure was a documentary testament of the radical transformations in the Republic’s lifestyle.
