In his much lauded Ex Libris: New York Public, which premiered at Venice, the legendary documentarian Frederick Wiseman, who devoted his career to making documentaries that shine a light on how institutions work, takes a closer look at one of the largest public libraries in the world. Wiseman, who carved out a niche for himself with his idiosyncratic view, once again creates a sense of “witnessing” with his trademark non-interventionist style. Ex Libris: New York Public Library is a very special documentary about cultural history and reality that are under treat nowadays.

As the New Year approaches, Pera Film presents an alternative watchlist of 10 movies, ranging from Hollywood's timeless classics to memorable examples of modern cinema.
In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art.
Pera Museum’s Cold Front from the Balkans exhibition curated by Ali Akay and Alenka Gregorič brings together contemporary artists from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia and Slovenia.
