Reflected Colors through the Magical Window

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • November 14, 2024 / 13:30

After visiting Calculations and Coincidences with a guide, children learn about the concepts of transparent, translucent, and opaque. Then, on the transparent surface, they assemble colorful geometric shapes in an order they have determined and make additions with acetate pens. The compositions created by the children turn into magical paintings that are reflected around with the effect of light on materials with different permeability and various colors.

Instructor: Anna Karayorgi
Capacity: 12 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 350 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

The Captive Sultan

The Captive Sultan

The war fought by the Greeks to shake off the Turkish yoke was closely observed around Europe and, this being the era of romanticism, the events taking place around Greece between 1821 and 1832 became a symbol for national liberation struggle.

At The Well

At The Well

Tadeusz Ajdukiewicz discovered the Orient in 1877, touring Syria, Egypt, Turkey, and the Crimea with Władysław Branicki. This experience made a profound impression on him, and he was to continuously revisit Eastern themes in his works for the rest of his life. 

Game of Mangala

Game of Mangala

Three figures in Eastern dress are shown in repose against an exotic landscape, smoking pipes and playing mangala. Inventories of the royal collections from 1739 identify the members of this group as the royal eunuch Matthias and two odalisques.
