Concert
March 17, 2024 / 17:00
Approaching Istanbul's cultural and artistic history from a musical perspective within the theme of "Şehr-i Istanbul," (The City of Istanbul) Rezonans offers a polyphonic musical experience as part of On the Spot: Panoramic Gaze on Istanbul, a History which aims to shed new light on the history of Istanbul’s representations through panoramic paintings and photographs.
The choir features Kyrie Eleison’s prayers which have echoed through Istanbul for centuries, the poems of Nedim proclaiming "This city of Istanbul is priceless," and the works of Hasan Uçarsu and Volkan Akkoç, important composers of our time.
You can attend the concert, held on the same floor as Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters, with a museum ticket. The seating is unnumbered.
Temporary Exhibition
The exhibition aims to shed new light on the history of Istanbul’s representations through panoramic paintings and photographs. It critically approaches the history of the "panorama" and contextualizes its many iterations. While examining the layered relationships in the production and consumption of panoramic images, the exhibition also explores the circulation of these images among different audiences, their receptions, and the connections between various media that have gained popularity over centuries.

Pera Museum, in collaboration with Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (İKSV), is one of the main venues for this year’s 15th Istanbul Biennial from 16 September to 12 November 2017.
Martín Zapater y Clavería, born in Zaragoza on November 12th 1747, came from a family of modest merchants and was taken in to live with a well-to-do aunt, Juana Faguás, and her daughter, Joaquina de Alduy. He studied with Goya in the Escuelas Pías school in Zaragoza from 1752 to 1757 and a friendship arose between them which was to last until the death of Zapater in 1803.
