Pera Young
Ages 13-17
In this workshop, inspired by Dóra Maurer's works, participants explore the creative process from parts to the whole. Designed for young people interested in design, art, and architecture, the workshop invites participants to create a module on paper with paint or in three dimensions using simple objects like toothpicks, handmade paper crafts, or wooden sticks. Throughout the workshop, the modules are repeated in different directions and variations, eventually forming a large whole by the end of the process.

Capacity: 15 people
Duration: 90 minutes
The event is free of charge; reservation is required.

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’.
