Is a story shaped by the choices presented to us, or does the storyteller also have a say? Based on Vera Molnár's art practice that integrates algorithms and mathematics, the workshop participants try to construct a story from the cards distributed to them. Participants will try to build their unique stories by making interventions to the cards sorted by chance. Even though the starting point is the same, it is experienced how different subjectivities and the chance factor can take the story to different points.
Note: Participants are kindly requested to send a photograph or drawing they have taken, created, or selected to ogrenme@peramuzesi.org.tr prior to the workshop.

This is one of Stanisław Chlebowski’s larger canvasses dealing with themes other than battles; only Ottoman Life at the Sweet Waters now at the Istanbul Military Museum can compare with it in size.
The war fought by the Greeks to shake off the Turkish yoke was closely observed around Europe and, this being the era of romanticism, the events taking place around Greece between 1821 and 1832 became a symbol for national liberation struggle.
Tadeusz Ajdukiewicz discovered the Orient in 1877, touring Syria, Egypt, Turkey, and the Crimea with Władysław Branicki. This experience made a profound impression on him, and he was to continuously revisit Eastern themes in his works for the rest of his life.
