Visual artist Andreas Finch, or Finch of Athens as he is more widely known, in collaboration with Art Place – Kyriakos Petalidis gallery, presents the exhibition “On Winged Winds – The Athenian Kiosks,” from January 22 to February 22, 2026, at the Cultural Center of the Municipality of Athens, which is being held with the support of the Organization for Culture, Sports, and Youth of the Municipality of Athens.

It is a representation of the history and evolution of Athens’ kiosks, through 20 three-dimensional, varied-sized, visual creations of historical kiosks as they appear in photographic depictions.

The exhibition, which is the result of long-term research by Andreas Finch, records and presents the gradual evolution of Athenian kiosks from the beginning of the last century to the present day, with an emphasis on their historical, architectural, and folkloric development over time.

The creative depiction begins with the first polygonal kiosks in Syntagma Square as presented on postcards of the time, followed by the first “Minion” in Chavteia, the “Muses” of Omonia Square, to the “Koutala” of Glyfada and the kiosk that collapsed on Panepistimiou Street during the metro construction works in 1997.

The concept behind the exhibition will be presented by author Thanasis Kappos, journalist Elena Dakoula, artistic curator Kyriakos Petalidis, and creator Andreas Finch.
