Nikos Karouzos and the poetics of the sacred
A conversation on Literature and the struggles for meaning in late modernity

September 28th, 2024, marks the 34th anniversary of the passing of the prominent Greek poet Nikos Karouzos. His poetry - unique, beautifully abstruse and inspired by biblical imagery - remains vibrantly reapproached by readers and publishers to this day. We seek to bring the axes of Karouzos' poetry and the premise of Nothing Sacred into dialogue, in order to explore the notion of the sacred in Literature, Society, and modern imagination. A challenging effort to connect literary texts with the cultural environments from which they emerge and to unravel the myth of the sacred beyond its theological provenance.

Artwork from exhibition titled In Parallax by Artemis Kotioni, on
view at the Opening Gallery through September 24th

A conversation between PHS Director, Prof. Stathis Gourgouris and Evangelos Vaiannis.

The history of art is inseparable from the history of color and this history is also a shared history. Chromocommons presents and puts on display sculptures, two-dimensional pieces, and live acts that explore the ways colors can be commons that enable us to create, and live differently.
Curation: Sozita Goudouna, PhD
Exhibition dates: May 16 - June 12, 2023 • 12 – 6pm

The Opening Gallery is pleased to present “Fathom,” a selection of new works by Shoplifter (Hrafnhildur Arnardóttir) and works by the artist collective The Callas, Misha Milovanovich, Leah Singer and Tula Plumi. The exhibition coincides with the release of a unique fanzine by Leah Singer and a signed limited edition.
“Fathom” in English means to grasp or be able to dream or imagine something and is an old unit for measuring, from one palm of your hand the other. That same word, Faðmur in Icelandic, means to embrace or hug.
