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.

Ioanna Papantoniou (1936-2026) | A person who has linked her name to Greek culture
Ioanna Papantoniou was a set designer and costume designer for the National Theater Greece and, in fact, the first woman to hold this position.

Thanks to her systematic and methodical efforts, she managed to enrich the Foundation’s collection with objects from Greek folklore, especially traditional clothing, which forms the core of …More

“Cans” by Alexandros Voutsas, at the O.art art space in Kypseli | March 5-14, 2026
Why cans? How are they defined? What do they offer?
Let’s start backwards. The word is borrowed from con+servare, which means to keep, to guard, to observe. It also means to preserve in sugar, or even to keep a quantity of something stable and unchanged during a chemical or physical change (food preservation, energy conservation). As for sugar, it symbolizes joy, love, innocence, and the celebration of comfort and temptation. In art and culture, it represents the sweetness of life, warmth, and sometimes a momentary feeling of “artificial” satisfaction as an antidote to an emotional void.
As we age, …More
