Inspired by Vera Molnár's works that utilise random processes, manipulation of geometric shapes and interactions between human and machine, the workshop uses three-dimensional printer pens. The participants first create the basic structure of the work by drawing regular lines on the surface they will work on, and then add free-form organic lines and point touches. Adding geometric shapes and spiral forms with pen filaments in various colors, the participants add layers and depth to their works.

About TEGV
Education Volunteers Foundation of Türkiye (TEGV) was founded on 23 January 1995 on the initiative of a group of industrialists, executives, and academics, including Suna Kıraç, who set out as an education volunteer for the future of her country and the world, and who strongly believed that education is the beginning of everything. Since its foundation, TEGV has focused on providing out-of-school education support to primary school children with the motto ‘A Child Changes, Turkey Develops’, and over the years has become the most widespread non-governmental organization operating in the field of education in Turkey. In 2009, TEGV was recognized by the Council of Ministers as one of the foundations entitled to ‘collect donations without permission’. Within the scope of its cooperation protocol with the Ministry of National Education (MoNE), TEGV continues to provide educational support to children with a modern mission and vision through 6 Education Parks, 42 Learning Units, and 26 Firefly Learning Units in 26 cities across Turkey.
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.
