On a guided exhibition tour, participants are inspired by Marcel Dzama's dancing figures, theatrical paintings and video installations such as Death Disco Dance and A Game of Chess to express their creativity through movement. Based on Dzama's original expression that transforms dance into a visual language, they combine collage technique with movement compositions. Throughout the workshop, playful instructions are given to facilitate physical exploration individually and as a group.
Note: It is recommended to come to the workshop in comfortable clothes and sneakers/socks.

Giacometti was selected for three important retrospectives at the New York Museum of Modern Art, the Tate Gallery in London and the Louisiana Museum of Art in Denmark, all of which were a great success.
In the 60s, Alberto Giacometti paid homage to Paris, the city where he lived, by drawing its streets, cafés, and more private places like his studio and the apartment of his wife, Annette. These drawings would make up his last book, Paris sans fin (Paris Without End).
Istanbul’s Seaside Leisure: Nostalgia from Sea Baths to Beaches exhibition brought together photographs, magazines, comics, objects, and books from various private and institutional collections, and told a nostalgic story while also addressing the change and socialization of the norms of how Istanbulites used their free time. Istanbul’s Seaside Leisure was a documentary testament of the radical transformations in the Republic’s lifestyle.
