Colors of the Earth
17th Istanbul Biennial Learning Programs

September 20 - November 20, 2022

Pera Museum Learning Programs organizes Colors of the Earth in parallel to the 17th Istanbul Biennial and inspired by the projects of the artists exhibited at the museum between September 20 and November 20, 2022, for different age groups, to be made available online and face to face.

The online events for preschool and elementary school students will be held on Zoom Meeting and will last for 30 minutes. These events include a virtual guided tour of the exhibition, followed by a workshop related to the exhibition. High school students can participate in virtual guided tours. Online and face to face workshops for individuals with special needs, also be conducted for elementary, middle school and high school students. Participant groups hold workshops for the exhibition after the exhibition tour accompanied by an instructor.

In face to face workshops, 4-6, 7-12 and 13-17 age groups, will find the opportunity to freely tap into their creativity to rethink their relationship with Earth, themselves, and other living beings, by becoming aware of the different sensations that the Biennial will bring to light, leading them into a multidisciplinary world that goes far beyond the visual arts.

Nudes With Mirrors

Nudes With Mirrors

Although mythological themes are not commonly encountered in Turkish painting, it is possible to see variations of widespread themes such as the Venus at her Toilet. 

History of a Khanjar

History of a Khanjar

Henryk Weyssenhoff, author of landscapes, prints, and illustrations, devoted much of his creative energies to realistic vistas of Belorussia, Lithuania, and Samogitia. A descendant of an ancient noble family which moved east to the newly Polonised Inflanty in the 17th century, the young Henryk was raised to cherish Polish national traditions.

The Search for Form

The Search for Form

A series of small and rather similar nudes Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu and Eren Eyüboğlu produced in the early 1930s almost resemble a ‘visual conversation’ that focus on a pictorial search. It is also possible to find the visual reflections of this earlier search in the synthesis Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu reached with his stylistic abstractions in the 1950s.
