Cute Swinging Bats

Pera Kids
Ages 4-6

  • April 19, 2025 / 10:30

We bring together the bats that Marcel Dzama often painted with the polka dot figures that he loved to include in his works!

In the workshop, children design bats that swing back and forth by folding paper plates, adding wings and painting them in the colors of their choice. While designing cardboard versions of these creatures, which are also known for sleeping upside down without falling, children develop their hand skills and explore their creativity.

Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 60 minutes
Fee per workshop: 350 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum.

The First Nudes

The First Nudes

Men were the first nudes in Turkish painting. The majority of these paintings were academic studies executed in oil paint; they were part of the education of artists that had finally attained the opportunity to work from the live model. The gender of the models constituted an obstacle in the way of characterizing these paintings as ‘nudes’.
