The performance focuses on Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters exhibition that includes works selected from the Orientalist Painting Collection. The exhibition reveals the meandering paths of diplomatic history under the guidance of art and also introduces us to intriguing personalities. The artist brings a new approach to the art patronage and ambassadors’ portraits from 17th to the 19th centuries while investigating the dichotomous lives of these ambassadors and painters.
