The poignant and tragic tale of the bohemian poet Napoleon Lapathiotis, who lived from 1888 to 1944… As a homosexual, drug addict, and communist, Lapathiotis caused controversy in the society of Athens, especially within the social class from which he hailed. He was one of the most iconic figures of his era, not only due to the profound impact of his poems that bore the imprints of his life but also for the scandals he sparked.
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 second part of exhibition illustrates Alberto Giacometti’s relations with Post-Cubist artists and the Surrealist movement between 1922 and 1935, one of the important sculptures series he created during his first years in Paris, and the critical role he played in the art scene of the period.
