Did you know that Byzantine motifs generally employed human figures and geometric elements? In this workshop, we first study the colors and shapes found in the Byzantine motifs at the exhibition. Then, with the inspiration we take from the colorful and lively patterns we come across in Byzantian art, architecture, clothes, and book engravings, we create present-day patterns using magnetic tangrams. Next, we design our own composition of geometric shapes using colored pencils. This workshop teaches us about architectural motifs and develops our analytical thinking skills and imagination.

Frida Kahlo was born on July 6, 1907 in Coyoacán, Mexico. Exactly 47 years from now, before she died in the same city and her beloved Mexico, many things would happen; she’d meet Diego Rivera, become a world-renowned artist, and allow many of her fans to dress like her on Halloween.
Born on October 25, 1881 in Malaga, Spain, Pablo Picasso’s full name takes about two lines: Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Martyr Patricio Clito Ruíz y Picasso.
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.
