Ilias Apostolou, a young furrier who has had a hard time under the dictatorship, leaves Castoria in 1971 with a photograph he finds in the street in order to go to France, to a distant relative of his, Gerassimos Tzivas, who has been living there since 1950 and whom he asks for help in finding work in Paris. A misunderstanding is created around this photograph, which sets off a series of events that culminate in a dramatic finale.
Inspired by its Anatolian Weights and Measures Collection, Pera Museum presents a contemporary video installation titled For All the Time, for All the Sad Stones at the gallery that hosts the Collection. The installation by the artist Nicola Lorini takes its starting point from recent events, in particular the calculation of the hypothetical mass of the Internet and the weight lost by the model of the kilogram and its consequent redefinition, and traces a non-linear voyage through the Collection.
In his book exploring the cultural history of souvenirs, Rolf Potts discusses how such objects assume meaning through personal stories: Objects turn into memories with the stories they hold.
