Dimensioning Lines

Pera Adult

  • December 13, 2024 / 19:00

Inspired by Vera Molnár's works that utilise random processes, manipulation of geometric shapes and interactions between human and machine, the workshop uses three-dimensional printer pens. The participants first create the basic structure of the work by drawing regular lines on the surface they will work on, and then add free-form organic lines and point touches. Adding geometric shapes and spiral forms with pen filaments in various colors, the participants add layers and depth to their works.

About TEGV
Education Volunteers Foundation of Türkiye (TEGV) was founded on 23 January 1995 on the initiative of a group of industrialists, executives, and academics, including Suna Kıraç, who set out as an education volunteer for the future of her country and the world, and who strongly believed that education is the beginning of everything. Since its foundation, TEGV has focused on providing out-of-school education support to primary school children with the motto ‘A Child Changes, Turkey Develops’, and over the years has become the most widespread non-governmental organization operating in the field of education in Turkey. In 2009, TEGV was recognized by the Council of Ministers as one of the foundations entitled to ‘collect donations without permission’. Within the scope of its cooperation protocol with the Ministry of National Education (MoNE), TEGV continues to provide educational support to children with a modern mission and vision through 6 Education Parks, 42 Learning Units, and 26 Firefly Learning Units in 26 cities across Turkey.

Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel

Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel

In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art.

The man is depicted in three-quarters view, turning straight to the viewers with a penetrating glance. The background is grey, while the clothes, the hair, and cap are black.

It can be seen how Goya gradually and constantly investigated all the technical possibilities of creative engraving from etching to lithography.
