Which art forms can we use to express our ideas? How can we define freedom? In this workshop, we talk about children’s rights and freedom, and exchange our opinions on these concepts. We first listen to the songs “Freedom” and “Children’s Rights” produced by the music group Şubadap Çocuk. Then, with inspiration from various paintings, posters and drawings which are part of the exhibition Socialist Realism in Albanian Art, notably the piece “International Children’s Day, 1 June, 1982”, we create a slogan and design a poster that aims to visualize our own ideas about freedom.

Is Istanbul a single city? Will Istanbul too, be one day one day divided into different sections, and numbered like the arrondisements of Paris? These are tough questions indeed!
The Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation’s Orientalist Painting Collection includes two children’s portraits that are often featured in exhibitions on the second floor of the Pera Museum. These portraits both date back to the early 20th century, and were made four years apart. One depicts Prince Abdürrahim Efendi, son of Sultan Abdulhamid II, while the figure portrayed on the other is Nazlı, the daughter of Osman Hamdi Bey.
Giorgio de Chirico was born on July 10, 1888, in Volos, Greece, to an Italian family. His mother, Gemma Cervetto, was from a family of Genoa origin, but most likely she was born in Izmir. His father, Evaristo, was born on June 21, 1841 in the Büyükdere district of Istanbul.
