We kick off by sharing examples of dance and movement therapy and practical examples, then we do a warm-up exercise and start moving our bodies. For the movement improvisation, we find inspiration in artist Jean-Baptiste Hilair's Yeni Camii and the Port of Istanbul painting from the Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters exhibition, included in the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation Collection Exhibitions. We work on various themes such as posture, costume and strength, with inspiration from the Daughter of the English Ambassador Riding in a Palanquin by Fausto Zonaro. This workshop calls for a curiosity about the body and offers a discovery thereof!
For the workshop, please find a place where you can move freely.
At the end of the event, participants will receive a certificate by e-mail.

“A nameless Egyptian fresco, an African idol or a vase from Crete: we should behold Pirosmani’s art among them. Only this way it is possible to conceive it genuinely … …You see Pirosmani – you believe in Georgia”.
Grigol Robakidze
Mersad Berber was born in Bosanski Petrovac, Kingdom of Yugoslavia, on January 1st. He was the first son of Muhammed Berber and Sadika Berber, a well-known weaver and embroiderer. A year later, the family moved to Banja Luka after the city had suffered damage from the World War II.
Mersad Berber (1940-2012), is one of the greatest and the most significant representatives of Bosnian-Herzegovinian and Yugoslav art in the second half of the 20th century. His vast body of expressive and unique works triggered the local art scene’s recognition into Europe as well as the international stage.
