A genuine Greek painting, derived from folk tradition, Byzantine austerity, ancient Greek beauty and musicality, is the painting by Gorgos Sikeliotis (1917-1984). Tied deeply with his personal experiences, with no traces of academic past, he proceeds honestly, hiding in the warm colors, attaching the dimensions to the bodies and faces, speaking about an earthly universality.
