POSTER EXHIBITION at IPTS corridors

We are pleased to announce that in the framework of the events organised during the semester of the Greek presidency of the European Commission, 36 posters by the National Gallery of Greece with works of Greek painters will be displayed throughout IPTS. Although this mini exhibition could not be fully representative, it aims to present certain aspects of the Greek mentality and the Greek drama: comedy or tragedy or both. The exhibits include paintings of some of the most important Greek artists of the 19th and 20th centuries, plus some less-known artists, offering a selective, if not panoramic, spectrum of modern and contemporary art. As Greece has unhappily been at the centre of global interest for the last years, comparing its image in its synchronicity and diachronicity can offer a wider scope. A European one.
