GCDN Annual Convening – Athens 2024

The revival and/or fulfillment in modern-day terms of Alex Mylona’s vision is proposed by the outdoor exhibition that is presented at the Esplanade of the SNFCC, curated by Syrago Tsiara, in the context of the collaboration between the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC) and the National Gallery - Alexandros Soutsos Museum.

The concept of the exhibition focuses on female artistic creation as it correlates with historical and institutional reality, restrictive terms, the dream and the praxis of transcendence.

Walkthrough led by Syrago Tsiara, Art historian, Exhibition curator, Director of the National Gallery - Alexandros Soutsos Museum
