Face-to-Face

Did you know that some stones found in nature are very valuable? What could these stones be used for, with their eye-catching color and shine? We will take a closer look at artist Kıymet Daştan’s work consisting of 15 artificial stones, which she made by melting CDs. In our workshop, we will create unique patterns inspired by the abstract patterns of natural stones and crystals found in various shapes and colors in nature by using watercolor and cling wrap. In the workshop, we will tap into our imagination and creativity while improving our hand-eye coordination.

From two portraits of children…

The Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation’s Orientalist Painting Collection includes two children’s portraits that are often featured in exhibitions on the second floor of the Pera Museum. These portraits both date back to the early 20th century, and were made four years apart. One depicts Prince Abdürrahim Efendi, son of Sultan Abdulhamid II, while the figure portrayed on the other is Nazlı, the daughter of Osman Hamdi Bey.

Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo was born on July 6, 1907 in Coyoacán, Mexico. Exactly 47 years from now, before she died in the same city and her beloved Mexico, many things would happen; she’d meet Diego Rivera, become a world-renowned artist, and allow many of her fans to dress like her on Halloween.
