SUMMARY:Nikolas Klironomos: A Retrospective (1985–2025)
DESCRIPTION:This major retrospective is a brilliant place to start looking into the work of Nikolas Klironomos\, an artist who has spent decades masterfully blurring the lines between fine art and set design.\n\nKlironomos doesn’t just paint; he “directs” his canvases. Think of him as a visual filmmaker who takes the raw\, chaotic energy of Athens\, our streets\, our faces\, our light\, and filters it through a lens of memory and emotion.\n\nIn this exhibition\, the mundane meets the dreamlike. You’ll see the changing seasons of the city tangled up with those small\, quirky moments that make life in Athens so unique. By playing with vibrant palettes and some rather unusual materials\, he creates scenes that feel like they’re in constant motion. It’s a bit like catching a glimpse of Athens from a moving Vespa—everything is fluid\, poetic\, and strangely alive.\n\nThis exhibition is designed to speak directly to your heart and your memory. What’s truly clever is how Klironomos takes “the bits and bobs” of life\, those fragmented\, everyday moments\, and gives them a sense of grandeur and importance. It’s a proper journey into the hidden corners of time and what it actually means to be human.\n\nOpening hours: Tuesday–Saturday: 11:00–19:00; Sunday: 10:00–16:00. Closed on Monday.

SUMMARY:Giorgos Tserionis: AFTER
DESCRIPTION:Through his works\, Giorgos Tserionis captures the life cycle of homo urbanus\, using a diverse array of materials such as clay\, marble\, metal\, and latex. The artist creates a contemporary “archaeology” from ruins\, building skeletons\, and debris\, highlighting the daily struggle for survival and the eternal search for a better life.\n\nSet within a historic neoclassical building in Metaxourgeio\, his work functions as a memento mori that\, while underscoring human fragility\, is not devoid of hope.\n\nBy juxtaposing darkness with light and “hazard yellow” with earthy tones\, the creator leads us beneath the surface of things\, offering a compassionate look at the hardships of modern man and giving a wink to the future with his own version of “and they lived happily ever after.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOpening hours: Tuesday–Saturday: 11:00–19:00; Sunday: 10:00–16:00. Closed on Monday.

SUMMARY:Inna Orlik: The Permanent Collection
DESCRIPTION:Orlik Gallery invites the This is Athens City Festival audience to a distinctive encounter with the visual universe of Inna Orlik. This exhibition brings to the fore a world where contemporary painting enters into a dialogue with mythology\, nature\, and the human experience\, creating an environment rich in symbolism and layers of interpretation.\n\nDefined by bold colours\, complex textures\, and a singular painterly language\, Orlik’s works move between the visible and the suggestive\, the personal and the collective. The artist transforms the canvas into a space for narrative and exploration\, inviting the viewer to discover forms\, symbols\, and underlying connections. It is an exhibition tailored for those seeking not only aesthetic intensity in contemporary art but also a substantial\, resonant depth.\n\nOpening hours: Daily: 12:00–18:00.

SUMMARY:ATHENS: AM EXTENDED
DESCRIPTION:A high-tech\, multi-sensory deep dive into the city’s midnight soul with photographer Thanasis Karatzas and multimedia director Byron Nikolopoulos teaming up to breathe life into 88 iconic black-and-white shots of Athens captured between 2008 and 2022. Hosted at the cutting-edge METACOSMOI space right in the heart of the city\, they’ve turned static images into a living\, breathing digital playground.\n\nUsing Augmented Reality (AR)\, VR\, and sleek video projections\, the exhibition takes classic street photography and adds movement\, sound\, and a splash of colour. The project is fresh off international acclaim at Paris Photo and Photo London\, so we’re thrilled to bring it back to the very streets that inspired it. You’ll see Athens as a “palimpsest”\, a city of layers where ancient history\, gritty urban vibes\, and the digital future all sit at the same table.\n\n
