We are celebrating “April 23 National Sovereignty and Children’s Day” at our online creative drama workshops through the collaboration of the Pera Museum Learning Programs and the Contemporary Drama Association. What have people been using to communicate throughout the ages? Do communication tools help us socialize, or do they create loneliness? How does the mass media affect our lives? Which has more of an impact on us–what we read, what we hear, or what we see? If you were to design your communication tool, what would it look like? At this workshop, we learn about different types of media and the tools of communication that have been used over the years through the art and visuals at the exhibition.

The Search for Form

The Search for Form

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.

The First Nudes

The First Nudes

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’.
