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.

Istanbul-Paris-Istanbul: Mario Prassinos

Istanbul-Paris-Istanbul: Mario Prassinos

Mario Prassinos liked Istanbul more than the current Istanbulites of today. It is obvious that you can understand this from the article written by her daughter Catherine Prassinos in the Pera Museum's book on the artist.

Jean-Léon Gérôme: Cultural Interactions in the Age of Change

Jean-Léon Gérôme is among the most renowned artists of the second half of the 19th century. One of the most fervent advocates of academic painting, Gérôme declared a personal war against modern movements such as Impressionism.

Artist Nicola Lorini in Conversation

Inspired by its Anatolian Weights and Measures Collection, Pera Museum presents a contemporary video installation titled For All the Time, for All the Sad Stones at the gallery that hosts the Collection. The installation by the artist Nicola Lorini takes its starting point from recent events, in particular the calculation of the hypothetical mass of the Internet and the weight lost by the model of the kilogram and its consequent redefinition, and traces a non-linear voyage through the Collection.
