Virtual Tour and Workshop Special for Father’s Day
Seamless Lines on Collage

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • June 19, 2022 / 11:00

We visit the exhibition And Now the Good News: Works from the Nobel Collection, which focuses on the relationship between the press and art, with a guided online 3D tour. We discuss the relationship between the technique of collage and the newspaper as both a material and a medium of communication. In the workshop, we draw inspiration from the collage and décollage works displayed in the exhibition, and cut or tear out pieces of paper without any images from pages of old newspapers and magazines, paste them randomly on cardboard. We draw abstract or concrete figures with a black felt-tip pen on the surface covered with newsprint. Finally, we create our composition by painting the linear form created by moving the tip of the pen, starting from one single point on the surface, without lifting it, with colored felt-tip pens. In this workshop, we learn about the Dadaism art movement, develop our motor skills, use our imagination, and learn the collage technique. This Father's Day, we invite children and their caregivers to the collage workshop to create together!

Dancing on Architecture

Dancing on Architecture

I think it was Frank Zappa – though others claim it was Laurie Anderson – who said in an interview that ‘writing on music is much like dancing on architecture’. 

It’s better to burn out than to fade away

It’s better to burn out than to fade away

In 1962 Philip Corner, one of the most prominent members of the Fluxus movement, caused a great commotion in serious music circles when during a performance entitled Piano Activities he climbed up onto a grand piano and began to kick it while other members of the group attacked it with saws, hammers and all kinds of other implements.

Andy Warhol’s Screen Tests

Andy Warhol’s Screen Tests

Between 1963 and 1966 Andy Warhol worked at making film portraits of all sorts of characters linked to New York art circles. Famous people and anonymous people were filmed by Andy Warhol’s 16 mm camera, for almost four minutes, without any instructions other than ‘to get in front of the camera’.
