Greece Patrons Circle

Karolina Krasouli, Konstantinos Hadjinikolaou, Nina Papakonstantinou, Vasilis Noulas‘Crossings #2 "Rebellion means looking at a rose"’, 2020

locus athens commissioned Christoforos Marinos to curate a series of conversations with artists based in Greece at their new space TAVROS. TAVROS is a non-profit space, founded by locus athens in October 2019, which aims to respond to the social and political circumstances around us through dialogue, listening and learning.

Crossings was a series of conversations curated and coordinated by art historian Christoforos Marinos held once every month (from February till June 2020) with artists based in Greece from different generations. The invited artists had the chance to exchange views and share references and obsessions. In turn, the audience had the opportunity to delve with greater depth into what drives artistic practices. Each conversation was based on the media used and the thematics that the respective artists touch upon.
