Teachers visit the Souvenirs of the Future exhibition inspired by the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation's Kütahya Tiles and Ceramics Collection. Upon experiencing the exhibition, which establishes a connection between memory and future imaginings through contemporary artworks, teachers unleash their creativity, decorating and transforming broken ceramic and marble pieces. They learn about the Japanese philosophy of Kintsugi, which involves accepting, embracing, and interpreting imperfections with a new perspective, and explore ways to convey this philosophy to their students.

Following the opening of his studio, “El Chark Societe Photographic,” on Beyoğlu’s Postacılar Caddesi in 1857, the Levantine-descent Pascal Sébah moves to yet another studio next to the Russian Embassy in 1860 with a Frenchman named A. Laroche, who, apart from having worked in Paris previously, is also quite familiar with photographic techniques.
He had imagined the court room as a big place. It wasn’t. It was about the size of his living room, with an elevation at one end, with a dais on it. The judges and the attorneys sat there. Below it was an old wooden rail, worn out in some places. That was his place. There was another seat for his lawyer. At the back, about 20 or 30 chairs were stowed out for the non-existent crowd.
