My participation in the International Marathon Center for Visual Arts (imvac.gr)

The International Marathon Center for Visual Arts was implemented with the aim of promoting culture in the wider region of North-Eastern Attica, the contact of art lovers with contemporary visual creation and creators through exhibitions and visual events as well as the familiarization and education of the public through special programs, seminars, scientific days and lectures, not only on the various expressions of Art such as painting, iconography, sculpture, engraving, illustration but also on the "History of Art" itself.

This vision could not have been realized and enriched if it was not embraced by a multitude of significant visual artists, and if there was not the support of the Marathon Art Festival Cultural Association.

My participation in the Heraklion Museum of Visual Arts group art exhibition "Works from the K. Schizakis Collection"

The collection, which currently includes more than four hundred works, highlights the visual history of Crete over the last 150 years through the works of Cretan artists, while also following contemporary trends in painting, sculpture and installations. The historically interesting drawings, cartoons, sketches, and works of modern handiwork (ceramics, wood carvings, etc.) are also noteworthy. As for the thematic composition of the works, a large part is the landscapes of the urban and outdoor fabric of Crete (mainly Heraklion), still lifes, portraits, studies of interior space, as well as inspirations from the ancient world (Theseus, Medea, Oedipus, etc.) and newer (Kallas, Melina) mythology. At the same time, there is no shortage of theatre, music (Hatzidakis, Theodorakis), poetry, and literature (Cretan and world).

This short presentation is an open invitation to visit the Museum of Visual Arts of Heraklion (METH) in this art-loving corner of the Cretan land, which hosts works of art, ideas, and values. Still, above all it is a shelter of love for the visual arts and their creators.

Η Αθήνα ως ένα ρευστό και ημιδιαφανές παλίμψηστο μνήμης και προσωπικών προβολών, αναδύεται μέσα από ένα συνεχή διάλογο με το πολιτιστικό, ιστορικό και ψυχικό της απόθεμα.
