Children draw inspiration from the magical world of orientalist paintings by visiting the Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters and Osman Hamdi Bey exhibitions with a guide. In the workshop, they imagine the unseen part of "The Tortoise Trainer" and transfer it onto paper using mixed techniques. Afterwards, with the help of the Journey into Osman Hamdi Bey's World – Virtual Reality Experience, the children step inside the painting. They then discuss the similarities and differences between what they've imagined and the digitally constructed space.
Capacity: 8 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 200 TL
The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

Between 1963 and 1966 Andy Warhol worked at making film portraits of all sorts of characters linked to New York art circles. Famous people and anonymous people were filmed by Andy Warhol’s 16 mm camera, for almost four minutes, without any instructions other than ‘to get in front of the camera’.
Nam June Paik was video art’s pioneer (1932 –2006). It is interesting that while Warhol and Nameth were experimenting with psychedelic happenings that combined rock, film and performance, the video art pioneers Nam June Paik, Stephen Beck, Eric Siegel and Steina Vasulka were researching in a similar direction.
If Manolo Valdés’s paintings convey a search for materiality, his sculpture does so even more. Today, sculpture has taken over most of his workspace, his time, and his efforts.
