Ζήσιμος Λορεντζάτος
Στον συγγραφέα Ζήσιμο Λορεντζάτο (1915-2004), μια ξεχωριστή μορφή των γραμμάτων μας και γενικότερα της ελληνικής παιδείας, είναι αφιερωμένος ο τόμος που μόλις κυκλοφόρησε από το Ίδρυμα της Βουλής για τον Κοινοβουλευτισμό και τη Δημοκρατία. Στην έκδοση, περιλαμβάνονται οι εισηγήσεις της εκδήλωσης που διοργανώθηκε από το Ίδρυμα της Βουλής στις 29 Ιανουαρίου 2020, στο πλαίσιο του Κύκλου «Πρόσωπα Άξια Τιμής», και συντόνισε ο Διονύσης Καψάλης, διευθυντής του Μορφωτικού Ιδρύματος της Εθνικής Τραπέζης.

A modern theater venue is taking shape at Peiraios 260
The industrial shell of the former Tsausoglou Factory, located at Peiraios 260 now owned by the Ministry of Culture and known as Building C, is being transformed into a contemporary theater space, while preserving and highlighting its authenticity, historical identity, and unique character.
The positive opinion issued by the Central Council for Modern Monuments regarding the study for the restoration and adaptive reuse of a section of the site, the landscaping of the outdoor spaces, and the necessary mechanical infrastructure, marks a milestone in the Ministry of Culture’s broader plan for the comprehensive revitalization of Peiraios 260 as …More
“Discovering” the beach| By Giannis Loukas
From the very first years of human existence, contact with the sea was inevitable due to the need for food and transport. However, the perils of the sea and the unknown gave rise to myths and legends of terrifying creatures lurking in the sea water. People would only swim for the purposes of military training, exercising and securing food.
In other respects the coast would remain the boundary between the safety of land and the danger of the sea. Swimming for pleasure and recreation would take many, many years to emerge. The first to “venture” into seaside fun …More
Aisxylia 2026 – The IRIS Multicultural Centre Becomes the Hub of the Festival
Now in its 52nd year, the Aisxylia Festival is one of the longest-running festivals in the country. Since 1975, it has consistently put Eleusis on the map as a cultural destination and landmark.
The Municipality, capitalizing on the city’s modern architectural heritage, will host this year’s festival for the second time at the former IRIS factory on Elefsis Beach, which has been transformed into a contemporary, multipurpose venue. Landmarks of the site include the chimney and the factory’s two oldest buildings, which have been designated as protected modern monuments, as they are representative examples of interwar industrial architecture. …More

Science Fiction Meets Artificial Intelligence at the National Library of Greece’s New Viewing Library | By Zoe Giannolopoulou
By Zoe Giannolopoulou
Loan Collection Department of the National Library of Greece
Science fiction—that is, the kind of fiction that “reflects”—places homo faber at its core, while at the same time exploring the boundaries of the potential, particularly those of potential space and potential time. It emerged as a distinct literary movement shortly after the first quarter of the 20th century, although its precursors can be traced back to late antiquity (see Lucian’s Icaromenippus,or The Sky-Man).
For symbolic and methodological reasons, the new Viewing Library of the National Library of Greece (NLG), which runs from July 1 through October …More
GSA/Historical Archives – Museum of Hydra| Giorgos Taxidis—Mount Athos: A Place of Silence| 01-31 August 2026
The exhibition is the result of a multi-year art program organized by the Mount Athos Center in collaboration with artist George Taxidis, who, between 2020 and 2025, made more than fifteen trips to the State of Mount Athos, visited all twenty monasteries, observed the monks’ daily routine, participated in liturgical services, conversed with them, and captured this immersive experience in 115 works using a variety of techniques: pencil, charcoal, oil, watercolor, as well as sculptures and engravings.
The exhibition premiered at the Mount Athos Center exhibition space (June 29 through October 11, 2025), then traveled to the AMKE …More
