Zephyr is thematically following Belma Baş’s multi-awarded short Poyraz. The eponymous Zephyr is a strong-willed adolescent girl, who spends her summer at her grandparents’ country home on the foothills of Turkey’s Eastern Black Sea Mountains. Her mother finally shows up, but only to say farewell before going far away. But Zephyr’s determination not to let her mother go, no matter what, is so strong that it leads to a tragic consequence.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, Pera Museum invites artist Benoît Hamet to reinterpret key pieces from its collections, casting a humourous eye over ‘historical’ events, both imagined and factual.
Each memory tells an intimate story; each collection presents us with the reality of containing an intimate story as well. The collection is akin to a whole in which many memories and stories of the artist, the viewer, and the collector are brought together. At the heart of a collection is memory, nurtured from the past and projecting into the future.
If Manolo Valdés’s paintings convey a search for materiality, his sculpture does so even more. Today, sculpture has taken over most of his workspace, his time, and his efforts.
