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.
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.
The exhibition “Look At Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection” examined portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and videos shaped a labyrinth of gazes that invite spectators to reflect themselves in the social mirror of portraits.
The series of paintings depicting the audience ceremonies of European ambassadors hold a unique place among the works of Jean-Baptiste Vanmour of Valenciennes, who lived in İstanbul from 1699 until his death in 1737.
