Hundred Year Old Films for Pera Museum's 10th Year Fantasia of Color

In 2015, EYE published Fantasia of Color in Early Cinema, based entirely on its own archival holdings. Hundreds of colorful frames from more than 60 films (1897-1915) were selected to be included in this book about fairy-tale, dream, metamorphosis and voyage. This film program presents some of the highlights allowing the audience to see the entire films that are only represented by few still images in the book.

Memory of the Region

Memory of the Region

Objects also bear the memory of the geography to which they relate. Ceramics, with soil as their primary material, are directly linked to the land where they are produced: forging a direct relationship with earth, ceramics bear the memory of the soil where they come from.

Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo

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.
