Did you know that Byzantine motifs generally employed human figures and geometric elements? In this workshop, we first study the colors and shapes found in the Byzantine motifs at the exhibition. Then, with the inspiration we take from the colorful and lively patterns we come across in Byzantian art, architecture, clothes, and book engravings, we create present-day patterns using magnetic tangrams. Next, we design our own composition of geometric shapes using colored pencils. This workshop teaches us about architectural motifs and develops our analytical thinking skills and imagination.

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.
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.
Men were the first nudes in Turkish painting. The majority of these paintings were academic studies executed in oil paint; they were part of the education of artists that had finally attained the opportunity to work from the live model. The gender of the models constituted an obstacle in the way of characterizing these paintings as ‘nudes’.
