We witness the colorful worlds of gazino singers such as Cavidan Ünal and Hatay Engin, who are rather known mostly by those in Germany, as well as artists such as Köln Bülbül and Yüksel Özkasap whose fame has also conquered those in Turkey. Accompanied by gazinos, pavilions, champagne like water flowing down a hill, huge amounts of money spent, and magnificent arabesque songs, the film describes the subculture and the queer world created 3000 km away with all its colors and radiance. We are happy to get to know Germany's “Sun of Art” Hatay Engin, and unfortunately, we get overwhelmed with pain as we learn that he died right after the shooting of the film, which is as real as a Gülden Karaböcek song: Germany that took my love away, believe me, everything about you is a lie, Germany.
The exhibition Look at Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection examines portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Through the exhibition we will be sharing about the artists and sections in “Look At Me!”.
1638, the year Louis XIV was born –his second name, Dieudonné, alluding to his God-given status– saw the diffusion of a cult of maternity encouraged by the very devout Anne of Austria, in thanks for the miracle by which she had given birth to an heir to the French throne. Simon François de Tours (1606-1671) painted the Queen in the guise of the Virgin Mary, and the young Louis XIV as the infant Jesus, in the allegorical portrait now in the Bishop’s Palace at Sens.
The Vanity of Small Differences is a series of six large scale tapestries, completed in 2012, which explore British fascination with taste and class, and can be seen in the Grayson Perry: Small Differences exhibition.
