Exhibition Tour

Pera Museum presents a guided exhibition tour series titled Pursuing the Masters' Legacy alongside the Coffee Break exhibition. In the first tour, the works of Hafız Mehmed Emin Efendi, who blended traditional tile motifs with the characteristics of Kütahya's tile and ceramic art, are examined through examples from the exhibition and the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics Collection.
Pursuing the Masters' Legacy examines the works of ceramic masters from Kütahya. The exhibition tours focus on the second golden age of tile and ceramic production in Kütahya during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The period's ceramic art was significantly shaped by four masters: Hafız Mehmed Emin Efendi, Minas Avramidis, the brothers Artin and Garabet Minasyan, and David Ohannesyan, whose works are examined in detail. Participants also have the opportunity to see works not displayed in the exhibition.
The 30-minute guided tour is free of charge, and the language is Turkish. The museum entrance fee must be paid separately. The quota is limited. To join the tour, you can make a reservation by e-mailing at resepsiyon@peramuzesi.org.tr.

Frida Kahlo was born on July 6, 1907 in Coyoacán, Mexico. Exactly 47 years from now, before she died in the same city and her beloved Mexico, many things would happen; she’d meet Diego Rivera, become a world-renowned artist, and allow many of her fans to dress like her on Halloween.
The shrines that created the glory of Constantinople through their lavish beauty were also repositories of precious relics and thus sources of healing.
