Hydra | The marble design studio on.entropy presented its Opuntia collection of sculptural objects
In June, at the Old Carpet Factory in Hydra, the Opuntia and Green Pepe sculptural design collections were presented through a site-specific installation.
Inspired by the prickly pear, the collections explored the relationship between nature, light, and marble through sculptural objects and portable lighting fixtures. With the invitation “Please Do Touch,” the installation encouraged the public to approach marble beyond its conventional perception: rigid yet malleable, austere yet tangible, cold yet luminous.
Set within the historic surroundings of the Old Carpet Factory mansion—known for its collection of rare musical instruments and …More
Piraeus Terminal Station: A walk through history| By Giannis Loukas
The interconnection of Athens with the port of Piraeus was the necessary condition for Athens to play its role as the capital of Greece.
Already from antiquity, Piraeus Street had assumed this key role, maintaining throughout history a central position in the life of Athens. It was always a “lively” street with a lot of traffic, following of course the periods of prosperity and decline of Athens.
After the liberation of Athens from the Ottoman rule, the image of Piraeus Street was that of a rough road connecting the port of Piraeus with Ermou Street. Crossing it, one could …More
Vasiliki Koskiniotou: Dual Solo Exhibition and Tribute Marking the 100th Anniversary of Nikos Karouzos’s Birth in Kythira
Renowned visual artist Vasiliki Koskiniotou is bringing two series of works to the island of Kythira this August, and at the same time invites fellow artists and visitors to the exhibition to engage with the poetry of Nikos Karouzos through participatory activities and events that will be announced during the exhibition on the island. Its first guest is Kythira-born artist Georgia Tsery.
As art historian Konstantinos Th. Spyropoulos notes in the exhibition’s curatorial text:
“When poetic material meets painting, there is always the risk of illustration or mere descriptive representation. In the case of Vasiliki Koskiniotou, however, the fusion …More

Athens Epidaurus Festival | A Trial | Dr. Stockmann on Trial Again in the Birthplace of Democracy | By Panos Liakos
Taking as its starting point the timeless themes of Henrik Ibsen’s play, An Enemy of the People (1882), the award-winning Brazilian director Christiane Jatahy revisits the play’s core themes and characters, essentially transforming the theater stage into a participatory courtroom.
Ibsen’s archetypal, conflict-driven hero, Dr. Thomas Stockmann, seeks a second chance to address the public and an opportunity to engage in a dialectical confrontation with his brother, the town’s mayor, Peter. The reason is their conflict over the contaminated public baths in the local community, with Thomas exposing the local government’s negligence and the mayor, for his part, …More
