We are inspired by the practice of Isabel Muñoz, who uses black-and-white photography both in her past projects and in most of her works exhibited in the museum. Participants learn the subtleties of black-and-white photography, which opens up space for abstraction, mystery and imagination, in the workshop led by photographer Orçun Karamustafa. the workshop focuses on the origin and present of black-and-white photography, and its emotional and aesthetic effects. Participants learn about composition, lighting, exposure and white balance in photography. Upon completion, they possess the knowledge and skills necessary to capture their own black-and-white photographs.
Note: You can attend the workshop with your professional camera or a smartphone with a camera.
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 180 minutes
Fee per workshop: 300 TL
The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

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.
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.
