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. Photographs are for safeguarding memories. Memories are perceived differently by those who take the photos and those who look at them. Seeing the world through photographs informs a person and sets up a line of communication with the photo. A photograph forges a bond between life and people–what memory would it choose to frame? Does a text complete a photograph, or vice versa? As you look for answers to the questions that have come up with the invention of the photograph, are you ready to take a journey into the history of the printed media? We design a newspaper page at the end of this workshop. We also not only discuss the invention of the photograph, but also talk about the interaction between photography and the printed media.

Mario Prassinos liked Istanbul more than the current Istanbulites of today. It is obvious that you can understand this from the article written by her daughter Catherine Prassinos in the Pera Museum's book on the artist.
Jean-Léon Gérôme is among the most renowned artists of the second half of the 19th century. One of the most fervent advocates of academic painting, Gérôme declared a personal war against modern movements such as Impressionism.
Inspired by its Anatolian Weights and Measures Collection, Pera Museum presents a contemporary video installation titled For All the Time, for All the Sad Stones at the gallery that hosts the Collection. The installation by the artist Nicola Lorini takes its starting point from recent events, in particular the calculation of the hypothetical mass of the Internet and the weight lost by the model of the kilogram and its consequent redefinition, and traces a non-linear voyage through the Collection.
