Pera Kids
Ages 4-6
After visiting the exhibitions titled Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters and Osman Hamdi Bey with a guide, children examine the centuries-old portraits in the paintings and discuss people's clothing, accessories, posture, and expressions. In the workshop, the details of the figures in these paintings are cut out and placed between transparent films. They use various decorative materials and paints to create new characters and finalize their collages with a laminating machine.
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 60 minutes
Fee per workshop: 350 TL
The event will take place at the Pera Museum.
A series of small and rather similar nudes Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu and Eren Eyüboğlu produced in the early 1930s almost resemble a ‘visual conversation’ that focus on a pictorial search. It is also possible to find the visual reflections of this earlier search in the synthesis Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu reached with his stylistic abstractions in the 1950s.
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’.
