The documentary, which films the changes that trans man Jack (Jack Celeste) undergoes over the course of five years when he started the gender transition process in 2016, also records the increasing conservatism in Brazil during the process. Jointly directed by Coraci Ruiz and Julia Matos, the film shows glimpses from Jack's life, showing how to blossom through the cracks of concrete. The film, which gives its audience hope to hold on in dark times, signals the glitches of the cis-tem as well. The documentary, which has been screened at many queer film festivals from Brazil to France, from Peru to Canada, portrays not only of its main character, but also of its country.
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.
A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
In 1962 Philip Corner, one of the most prominent members of the Fluxus movement, caused a great commotion in serious music circles when during a performance entitled Piano Activities he climbed up onto a grand piano and began to kick it while other members of the group attacked it with saws, hammers and all kinds of other implements.
