Participants who visit PƎRⱯ Reverse with a guide have the opportunity to rethink Istanbul through places of memory. The workshop pursues the answers to the questions “If Istanbul was as we imagine it, where would famous buildings be and how would they look?”. Participants cut paper forms into silhouettes and place them one after the other, thus designing a multi-dimensional and reconstructed Istanbul.
Instructor: Giz’li Atölye
Capacity: 12 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 300 TL

Giz’li Atölye hakkında
Giz’li Atölye has been operating in Caferağa, Kadıköy since 2004, established with the cooperation of Gizem Gürsel and Sedef Kermen. Giz’li Atölye has recently turned into a collective production area by incorporating different disciplines and continues its creative activities by incorporating solidarity, diversity of ideas and communication experiences into its art practices.
1638, the year Louis XIV was born –his second name, Dieudonné, alluding to his God-given status– saw the diffusion of a cult of maternity encouraged by the very devout Anne of Austria, in thanks for the miracle by which she had given birth to an heir to the French throne. Simon François de Tours (1606-1671) painted the Queen in the guise of the Virgin Mary, and the young Louis XIV as the infant Jesus, in the allegorical portrait now in the Bishop’s Palace at Sens.
This life-size portrait of a girl is a fine example of the British art of portrait painting in the early 18th century. The child is shown posing on a terrace, which is enclosed at the right foreground by the plinth of a pillar; the background is mainly filled with trees and shrubs.
Based on similar examples by the European painters in various collections, this work is one of the portraits of Mihrimah Sultan, who was depicted rather often in the 16th century.
