SUMMARY:Anything but Marble
DESCRIPTION:This activity is only available in Greek. \n\nFor nearly 60 years\, British artist Phyllida Barlow created monumental installations that were both threatening and playful. She made large-scale sculptures using cheap\, humble materials such as cardboard\, fabric\, plywood\, gauze\, and plaster. As she herself states\, “In the past\, sculpture carried historical narratives. Marble dominated and celebrated individuals.” One of the individuals traditionally celebrated in sculpture was Darwin\, who was a distant relative of hers—something she carefully concealed to avoid being seen as “privileged” because of her lineage. By rejecting traditional sculpture\, she renounced her own past through her work\, forging her unique artistic identity. Drawing inspiration from her practice\, we will work with humble materials and create small-scale hanging sculptures. Workshop leaders: Vivian Emmanouilidou\, Visual Artist – Museum Educator & Magda Athanasiou\, Educator – Museum Educator. \n\nThe workshop is aimed at children aged 7-11.

SUMMARY:De Profundis Live: VBH
DESCRIPTION:Vivaldi – Bach – Handel. Three of the greatest composers of all time—who never met\, but connected through musical script.\n\nJohann Sebastian Bach discovered the music of Antonio Vivaldi through the written page\, learning from the Venetian master’s compositional thinking. Though both German and born in 1685\, Bach and Handel never crossed paths—yet Bach transcribed several works by Handel\, drawn to his style. And Handel’s own music is steeped in the influence of Vivaldi.\n\nThis concert brings the genius of all three together for the first time—through their music—at the atmospheric atrium of the Epigraphic Museum of Athens.\n\nDe Profundis Ensemble\nFirst Violins: Ilias Gyftonikolos\, Zoi Prokopiou\nSecond Violins: Chrysi Tzavla\, Maria Argyri\nViola: Eleni Fourlanou\nCello: Myrto Xirouchaki\nDouble Bass: Giorgos Danis\n\nReservation required.
