Children who visit Souvenirs of the Future explore contemporary works inspired by the ceramic motifs in the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics Collection. Using mirrored cardboard and drawing patterns inspired by the geometric or natural forms of the ceramics, the children examine the transforming motifs through their fun "object of gazing" as they rotate it.
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 200 TL
The event will take place in the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

In 1962 Philip Corner, one of the most prominent members of the Fluxus movement, caused a great commotion in serious music circles when during a performance entitled Piano Activities he climbed up onto a grand piano and began to kick it while other members of the group attacked it with saws, hammers and all kinds of other implements.
Between 1963 and 1966 Andy Warhol worked at making film portraits of all sorts of characters linked to New York art circles. Famous people and anonymous people were filmed by Andy Warhol’s 16 mm camera, for almost four minutes, without any instructions other than ‘to get in front of the camera’.
Nam June Paik was video art’s pioneer (1932 –2006). It is interesting that while Warhol and Nameth were experimenting with psychedelic happenings that combined rock, film and performance, the video art pioneers Nam June Paik, Stephen Beck, Eric Siegel and Steina Vasulka were researching in a similar direction.
