After the harsh conditions of the pandemic, the 11th Pink Life QueerFest is bringing together the queer film festivals from Beijing, Pakistan, and Turkey.
One of the Beijing Queer Film Festival programmers, queer director and activist Popo Fan, Aks International Minorities Film Festival country coordinator Kami Sid, and Pink Life QueerFest director Gök Akyel will join as speakers at the event. Saadat Munir, the creative director, filmmaker and curator of Aks International Minorities Film Festival, will facilitate this event.
The exhibition “Look At Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection” examined portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and videos shaped a labyrinth of gazes that invite spectators to reflect themselves in the social mirror of portraits.
The series of paintings depicting the audience ceremonies of European ambassadors hold a unique place among the works of Jean-Baptiste Vanmour of Valenciennes, who lived in İstanbul from 1699 until his death in 1737.
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.
