Exhibition Tour
December 20, 2024 / 18:30
Pera Museum presents a guided exhibition tour series titled Pursuing the Masters' Legacy alongside Coffee Break exhibition. The forth one of the exhibition tour series focuses on the second golden age of tile and ceramic production in Kütahya, spanning the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
This period's ceramic craftsmanship was significantly shaped by four masters: Hafız Mehmed Emin Efendi, Minas Avramidis, the brothers Artin and Garabet Minasyan, and David Ohannesyan. Their works are examined in detail, providing participants the opportunity to see the tiles and ceramics which have not been displayed in the exhibition.
The 30-minute guided tour is free of charge, and the language is Turkish. The quota is limited. To join the tour, you can make a reservation by e-mailing at resepsiyon@peramuzesi.org.tr.

Discovered in Ethiopia as the “magic fruit,” and reaching the land of the Ottomans through Yemen in the 15th century, coffee soon assumed its place as a prestigious beverage in the palace and wealthy households.

If Manolo Valdés’s paintings convey a search for materiality, his sculpture does so even more. Today, sculpture has taken over most of his workspace, his time, and his efforts.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, Pera Museum invites artist Benoît Hamet to reinterpret key pieces from its collections, casting a humourous eye over ‘historical’ events, both imagined and factual.
I remembered a game as I was waiting in the passenger lounge for the ferry to arrive just a few minutes ago. A game we used to play at home when I was young, in my country that is very far away from here, a relic from the distant past; I don’t even remember how we used to play it. The kind of game that makes me feel a thousand times lonelier than I already am among the crowd waiting to get on the ferry.
