Pera Film presents Pera Museum's Miniature 2.0: Miniature in Contemporary Art exhibition themed selection online.
The Miniature 2.0: Miniature in Contemporary Art exhibition is a collection of works that take miniature as a point of departure, showcasing different approaches to miniature and the principles they have in common. What the artists in the exhibition have in common is the fact that they look at the world through the lens of miniatures. The program titled Stepping In, Stepping Out features three films that trace the reflection of the subjects the artists in the exhibition address through miniature, and that try to offer both an insider’s and an outsider’s view on their stories.
Taking place between January 11 - 24, the program includes Her First, a film interlaced with many questions–sometimes replied and sometimes left afloat–that tells the story of being a woman, a working woman, a woman filmmaker in Turkish cinema, told by 14 female directors; Ali Kemal Çınar’s second feature film titled Hidden, which tells the story of a young man who finds out that he will turn into a woman when he turns 30; and the award-winning documentary Married to the Camera, which offers a direct, truth-driven account of Esra Erol’s famous TV show with striking behind the scenes footage as well as actual footage from the show.
The films will be streamed at peramuseum.org between January 11 - 24, and only be accessible to online audiences in Turkey.
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.
Józef Brandt harboured a fascination for the history of 17th century Poland, and his favourite themes included ballistic scenes and genre scenes before and after the battle proper –all and sundry marches, returns, supply trains, billets and encampments, patrols, and similar motifs illustrating the drudgery of warfare outside of its culminating moments.
Between 1963 and 1966 Andy Warhol worked at making film portraits of all sorts of characters linked to New York art circles. Famous people and anonymous people were filmed by Andy Warhol’s 16 mm camera, for almost four minutes, without any instructions other than ‘to get in front of the camera’.
