Visiting the Isabel Muñoz: A New Story exhibition, the children gain the opportunity to look at reliefs and sculptures, which were made thousands of years ago, through the lens of photography and take a journey towards the art of the past. Inspired by cave art, which includes wild animal depictions, hunting scenes, symbols filled with geometric shapes, and handprints that have survived tens of thousands of years, the children decorate this miniature wall with the symbols and traces they wish, giving their papers a cave-like appearance.

Capacity: 15 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 200 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

Giacometti: Early Works

Giacometti: Early Works

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.

The second part of exhibition illustrates Alberto Giacometti’s relations with Post-Cubist artists and the Surrealist movement between 1922 and 1935, one of the important sculptures series he created during his first years in Paris, and the critical role he played in the art scene of the period.

Giacometti worked nonstop on his sculptures, either from nature or from memory, trying to capture the universal facial expressions.
