At the workshop to be held during Science and Technology Week, we’ll be learning about Isaac Newton and the Law of Action and Reaction. After first chatting about examples of the Law of Action and Reaction taken from real life, we’ll learn the working principle of rockets, design a rocket that works using this principle, and observe how a rocket’s speed can change depending upon how much weight it carries.

Memory Building Memories / Memory Room / Memento Mori

Each memory tells an intimate story; each collection presents us with the reality of containing an intimate story as well. The collection is akin to a whole in which many memories and stories of the artist, the viewer, and the collector are brought together. At the heart of a collection is memory, nurtured from the past and projecting into the future.

Modernity Building the Modern / Reshaping the Modern

Modernity Building the Modern / Reshaping the Modern

A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
