Pera Kids
Ages 7-12
How are the buildings that we live in made? How are huge structures level? The participants join us on a guided online exhibition tour and look at the tools used by architects and engineers in the past. Then, we look at the aerial balances on display, which are known to be used by Mimar Sinan in the construction of the Kırkçeşme Waterway and used in the mines in Europe until the 19th century, and design our own balances with various materials such as chenille, rope and wire. In this workshop, we learn about different measuring equipment that have been used in Anatolia so far, improve our fine motor skills and fuel our imagination.

John Frederick Lewis is considered one of the most important British Orientalist artists of the Victorian era. Pera Museum exhibited several of Lewis’ paintings as part of the Lure of the East exhibition in 2008 organized in collaboration with Tate Britain.
Organized in collaboration with the Giacometti Foundation, Paris, the exhibition explores Giacometti’s prolific life, most of which the artist led in his studio in Montparnasse, through the works of his early period as well his late work, including one unfinished piece. Devoted to Giacometti’s early works, the first part of the exhibition demonstrates the influence of Giovanni Giacometti, the father of the artist and a Swiss Post-Impressionist painter himself, on Giacometti’s output during these years and his role in his son’s development.
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.
