How the Room Felt is the story of a team of queer, non-binary and lesbian footballers in Kutaisi, Georgia. The documentary focuses on the unifying power of football and the creation of a safe space among queers, in an atmosphere where pride marches are cancelled and LGBTI+ people are not welcomed by society. The film also witnesses a lot of kiki, partying and romantic relationships during the team’s meetings. The documentary tells the story of how a group whose daily reality consists of discrimination, exclusion and violence shows solidarity when they come together, protects and loves each other.

Inspired by its Anatolian Weights and Measures Collection, Pera Museum presents a contemporary video installation titled For All the Time, for All the Sad Stones at the gallery that hosts the Collection. The installation by the artist Nicola Lorini takes its starting point from recent events, in particular the calculation of the hypothetical mass of the Internet and the weight lost by the model of the kilogram and its consequent redefinition, and traces a non-linear voyage through the Collection.

Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel

Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel

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.
