Collective Magazine Workshop: Words and Traces

Pera Adult

  • June 22, 2025 / 14:00

How about turning your story, thoughts and visuals into a collective work?

In the workshop, participants combine their creativity to create a unique 16-page magazine. Many steps, such as visual and textual production, magazine design, pagination, and concept development, are carried out collectively. The magazine, which consists of the works of all participants, is professionally digitized and shared with the participants at the end of the workshop.

Open to anyone who is interested in publishing and willing to produce textual or visual works, this workshop offers an ideal opportunity to explore all the steps of magazine making in a collective and creative way.

Note: Participants are encouraged to bring (digitally) the texts/visuals/drawings/photographs/poems they have produced or want to share with them. On the other hand, it is also possible to contribute to the process only in terms of ideas or concept design.

Instructor: Ekin Can Göksoy
Capacity: 14 people
Duration: 3 hours
Fee per workshop: 500 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum.

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.
