In our third session of the talk series, “I am new to Izmir and…” this week, we gathered to listen to Özcan and Vera’s experiences related to the city. We deeply enjoyed hearing Özcan’s story of moving from Istanbul to Bergama. Vera, after relocating from Russia to Izmir, shared one of the most intriguing aspects she found was being able to see both the subway and horse-drawn carriages simultaneously from her window.
While Vera touched upon the challenges faced by activists in anti-war movements in Russia, Özcan discussed art as an activist practice from his own perspective.
The next meeting of the “I am new to Izmir and…” series will take place on
October 31st, Tuesday, at 19:00 at Izmir Mediterranean Academy
Guests: Menelaos and Hale.
