Paper Weaving Designs

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • November 18, 2020 / 13:00

Are we able to recognize the texture of objects without touching them? Can we create designs that give different senses through sight or touch? We weave paper with inspiration from the artist Noor Ali Chagani’s The Hanging Rug made of handmade miniature bricks. We use a weaving technique to create interwoven 3D designs out of colored railroad boards.

The Search for Form

The Search for Form

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.

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’.
