Pera Adult
Pera Museum Learning Programs celebrates 19 May Youth and Sports Day with a sculpture workshop!
The participants, who visit the Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters exhibition with a guided tour by examining the way the human body is presented in portraits, create original sculptures that reflect the diversity of the body by using clay and wire in the workshop. In the workshop led by sculptor Ferzan Kaan Serdar, participants explore the art of sculpture, which is used in the visual representation of power as well as in the expression of form and movement, and the creative possibilities of this art, based on the relationship between skin and stone throughout human history.
Instructor: Ferzan Kaan Serdar
Capacity: 15 people
The event is free of charge. Reservation is required.
The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

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.
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.
In this piece, Żmurko presents an exotic image of a harem chamber, replete with gleaming fabrics and scattered jewels, as a setting for the statuesquely beautiful body of an odalisque murdered “at the order of the padishah”.
