Wooden Figures: Character Design

Pera Kids
Ages 9-12

  • July 20, 2024 / 13:30

Children who visit Intersecting Worlds travel across the meandering paths of diplomatic history under the guidance of art. In the workshop, they use their imagination to create brand new characters inspired by the characters they see in the paintings in the exhibition. Children bring the characters in the stories they imagine to life by painting them on wooden pawns of different sizes, and at the same time, they look for ways to solve the problems these characters face in the story.

Instructor: Sinan Kadife
Capacity: 12 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 250 TL

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

Giacometti & the Human Figure

Giacometti & the Human Figure

Giacometti worked nonstop on his sculptures, either from nature or from memory, trying to capture the universal facial expressions.

Giacometti’s Final Works

Giacometti was selected for three important retrospectives at the New York Museum of Modern Art, the Tate Gallery in London and the Louisiana Museum of Art in Denmark, all of which were a great success. 

Paris Without End (1959-1965)

Paris Without End (1959-1965)

In the 60s, Alberto Giacometti paid homage to Paris, the city where he lived, by drawing its streets, cafés, and more private places like his studio and the apartment of his wife, Annette. These drawings would make up his last book, Paris sans fin (Paris Without End).
