To reunite with his grandmother, young Vassilis runs away from the orphanage, roams around the heart of Athens and then decides to take the train for Tripolis. He wanders about the mountainous regions of Arcadia and comes upon a young woman whose car has broken down. The two of them form an unexpected but equally beneficial alliance and continue their wanderings the whole summer, until the boy returns to his grandmother's house, a dilapidated ruin with no sign of life.
“The portrait tells us that there is an inner and an outer dimension of the human condition; it provides—or should provide—information about both the physical and psychological character of an individual.”
Pera Museum, in collaboration with Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (İKSV), is one of the main venues for this year’s 15th Istanbul Biennial from 16 September to 12 November 2017. Through the biennial, we will be sharing detailed information about the artists and the artworks.
