ATHENS, Greece (AP) — The sculpture shows a shabbily-dressed man slipping off what appears to be a graph, an economic index perhaps, that is crumbling under his feet. His mouth is distended in something less than a scream, more than a cry.

ATHENS, Greece (Xinhua) – While negotiations between Greece and its creditors are at a critical point, with the country warning it is running out of cash by the end of the month, a new public sculpture in Athens highlights the devastating effect of the crisis on the Greek society and the people.

”Artist Anastasios Nyfadopoulos from Athens is the winner of a global arts Award from Red Line Art Works, a UK-based global arts project. The annual Award is for art that deals with big global concerns (such as climate change, inequality, war, poverty, patriarchy, bad leaders, etc).

As Syriza nears its 100th day in office, Alexis Tsipras walks a fine line between eurozone compromise and being accused of submitting to Angela Merkel

In the countdown to Syriza marking 100 days in office, Greece got its first crisis monument. Arms outstretched, mouth wide open, his face locked in despair, the sculpture depicts a man dangling from a financial index in free fall. Below, his world of concrete and stone lies broken and smashed.
Officially known as the “crisis work”, the art piece has attracted a steady flow of spectators to the place where it has been erected, in the shadow of a bridge on the boulevard that connects Athens to the sea. Flowers lie next to it as if in mourning for all that has passed.

A new space for contemporary sculpture exhibitions opens on Friday, September 10, in Maroussi, featuring an exhibition that not only holds artistic interest but also includes a significant aspect of practical solidarity: The internationally awarded sculptor Anastasios Nyfadopoulos, in collaboration with the Hellenic Red Cross, will donate 50% of the exhibition’s proceeds to those affected by this year’s fires.
