Children are taken on a journey into the past of human history and learn about the stone sculptures produced thousands of years ago by visiting the exhibition Isabel Muñoz: A New Story. Afterwards, they learn about the history of museology and how the methods of exhibiting art have come to the present by tracing its unknown mysteries. In the workshop, the children create their own holograms inspired by the photographs in the exhibition through new-generation technologies.
Materials: Participants who want to create the hologram with their own device should bring a tablet (or smartphone) to use in the workshop. Those who are not able to bring a device can also participate in the workshop and experience the process from a common device from the workshop.)

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.
In a bid to review the International System of Units (SI), the International Bureau of Weights and Measures gathered at the 26th General Conference on Weights and Measures on November 16, 2018. Sixty member states have voted for changing four out of seven basic units of measurement. The kilogram is among the modified. Before describing the key points, let us have a closer look into the kilogram and its history.
