The First Contemporary Sculpture Exhibition Space Opens in Maroussi
Today, Friday, September 10th, the first exhibition space dedicated to contemporary sculpture in Maroussi will open its doors to the public from 7:00 pm to 11:30 pm at 9 Kerkyras Street. 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. The exhibition will also be open to the public during the weekend.

Throughout all ages, art has played its own role in portraying, denouncing, or highlighting events, situations, and people. From antiquity to the present day, political, religious, or national events triggered the inspiration for creating artistic works, which, although at that given time were linked to a specific event, they were able to gain throughout the years eternal acceptance and admiration, due to their high artistic value. For example, every time we hear the music of Mikis Theodorakis, we are deeply touched even though the Greek dictatorship took place a long time ago.

“The artist visualizes and portrays,” wrote Kandinsky. This statement, besides revealing a specific meaning for Kandinsky himself as the introducer of abstract art, becomes very relevant in times of crisis. The artist “sees,” feels, and has the ability to express and reflect the peculiarity of his time, denounce and awaken people through the artistic forms that he creates.
