Piece by Piece Photography

Pera Enabled

After a guided virtual tour of the And Now the Good News: Works from the Nobel Collectionexhibition, we will observe how artists searched for a new function in society and novel ways of expressing themselves using the changing communication tools within the new art environment following the invention of photography. In this workshop, we focus on the relationship between printed media and visuals and analyze the period when artists had to compete with the camera. We’ll be cutting black and white city photos using the decollage technique and then color our work. The goal of this workshop is to improve students’ communication, problem solving and motor skills, and to strengthen their confidence.

Pera Museum Blog is launching a new series of creepy stories in collaboration with Turkey’s Fantasy and Science Fiction Arts Association (FABISAD). The Association’s member writers are presenting newly commissioned short horror stories inspired by the artworks of Mario Prassinos as part of the Museum’s In Pursuit of an Artist: Istanbul-Paris-Istanbul exhibition. The third story is by Murat Başekim! The stories will be published online throughout the exhibition. Stay tuned!

Midnight Horror Stories: The Last Ferry
Galip Dursun

I remembered a game as I was waiting in the passenger lounge for the ferry to arrive just a few minutes ago. A game we used to play at home when I was young, in my country that is very far away from here, a relic from the distant past; I don’t even remember how we used to play it. The kind of game that makes me feel a thousand times lonelier than I already am among the crowd waiting to get on the ferry.

From Cypresses to Turkish Landscapes

From Cypresses to Turkish Landscapes

Among the most interesting themes in the oeuvre of Prassinos are cypresses, trees, and Turkish landscapes. The cypress woods in Üsküdar he saw every time he stepped out on the terrace of their house in İstanbul or the trees in Petits Champs must have been strong images of childhood for Prassinos.
