Concert
November 17, 2016 / 20:00
Complementing Pera Film's "Tune In!" program, Istanbul based quintet Flapper Swing will perform a concert on 17 November Thursday at Pera Café.
Flapper Swing
Flapper Swing is an Istanbul based quintet playing Django Reinhardt’s style of jazz, “Jazz Manouche”. These five musicians were brought together by their passion for taunting acoustic sounds of gypsy swing and they are focusing on 1920s and 1930s repertoire, played with authentic sound of that period. In their performances the band is striving to bring the audience an atmosphere of roaring twenties and ballroom parties, the “Golden Era” of Jazz.
Held at Pera Café, the concert is free of admissions. Space is limited, drop in.
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.
As artisanship became a part of artistic practices with the blurring of art and craft, the use of traditional motifs has also flourished. In this context, how are these motifs currently structured or designed beyond their traditional connotations?
Pera Museum presents an exhibition of French artist Félix Ziem, one of the most original landscape painters of the 19th century. This week we are sharing Ziem’s work inspired by Istanbul and “the East”!
