Teachers

  • November 15, 2023 / 15:00

Teachers visit the Souvenirs of the Future exhibition inspired by the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation's Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics Collection. Upon experiencing the exhibition, which establishes a connection between memory and future imaginings through contemporary artworks, teachers unleash their creativity, decorating and transforming broken ceramic and marble pieces. They learn about the Japanese philosophy of Kintsugi, which involves accepting, embracing, and interpreting imperfections with a new perspective, and explore ways to convey this philosophy to their students. 

Instructor: Ayça Öztürk, Ayşe Topsöğüt
Capacity: 8 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 50 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

Chlebowski’s Sultan

This is one of Stanisław Chlebowski’s larger canvasses dealing with themes other than battles; only Ottoman Life at the Sweet Waters now at the Istanbul Military Museum can compare with it in size.

The Captive Sultan

The Captive Sultan

The war fought by the Greeks to shake off the Turkish yoke was closely observed around Europe and, this being the era of romanticism, the events taking place around Greece between 1821 and 1832 became a symbol for national liberation struggle.

At The Well

At The Well

Tadeusz Ajdukiewicz discovered the Orient in 1877, touring Syria, Egypt, Turkey, and the Crimea with Władysław Branicki. This experience made a profound impression on him, and he was to continuously revisit Eastern themes in his works for the rest of his life.
