He was born under the Acropolis, at the Church of the Holy Apostles, as his grandfather was a priest and had some rooms for the family to live. His father was a musician, a professor at the National Conservatory, and a composer. But Alekos Fassianos did not follow the path of art because of his father. He did not even sit down to think about it. “It is not a matter of decision, it leads you to your passion”. And his own passion was to just become a painter. He wants to talk about his art as well as the art of Theophilos and Tsarouchis. However he has many objections, about his future plans. He passes the question about the museum near Omonia, that was the house he grew up after the family left Plaka and refuses to say anything more about his summer plans. “I do not want to answer such questions. All painters say it just to be admired. I prefer to create and for it to be shown. ”
