EXHIBITIONS

1. Team exhibition: "From individualities to teamwork" Curator: Lia Koutelieri

According to William Shakespeare , the mission of art is giving a shape to life. Art is a result of human activity. It is the creative expression of the person, aiming on searching everything that "is",whether it exists or not. Sometimes everything seems to be measured by human module. Often lonely and isolated, wrapped up in his protective cocoon but soon realising that the advancement

of being is a result of teamwork, not individuality. The updgrading of human spirit is also a result ofco-existing.Participants: M.Aristotelous, I.Betsi, D.Koiliakou, E.Fakou, I.Tsilidis, Titania, D.Pantazi, M.Zacharof, A.Loi, G.Oibak, E.Veliou, P.Koullia, P.Grizos, A.G.Sofianopoulos, S.Zoumpoulakis, E.Athanasiou, M.

Greek and foreign artists are inviting us to discover their aesthetical visualizing of things, through pieces of their work.
