Panagiotidis Aggelos

Angelos Panagiotidis was born in Amfilochia in 1950. He presented his first works in his atelier in 1990 and his first exhibition took place in 1995 at the Titanium Yiayiannos Gallery. Since then, he has held 18 solo exhibitions and participated in many group exhibitions. Numerous Olympic winners and heads of states have been honoured with his sculptures. During the Athens Olympic Games in 2004, he created the artwork “Olive Tree of Athens”, made of bronze and copper, standing 3.30 meters tall, consisting of 5,000 bronze leaves, which was exhibited throughout the duration of the Olympic Games in the sponsors park (Water Plaza) in Paleo Faliro. The artwork is permanently displayed at Technopolis in Gazi.

His artworks can be found in the National Bank of Greece, Piraeus Bank, the Olive Museum in Sparta, the Christos and Sofia Moschandreou Gallery in Messolonghi, at the headquarters of Coca-Cola in Athens, as well as in Atlanta, USA. Additionally, replicas of the artwork “Olive Tree of Athens” were offered by the main sponsor of the Olympic Games, Coca-Cola, to the Olympic Museum in Lausanne and to the Olympic Committee of Beijing.

His artworks are also presented in the United Nations Security Council and the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. Prototype artworks of Angelos Panagiotidis are permanently exhibited and sold at the Museum of Cycladic Art.

Furthermore, he has been collaborating with ELTA (Hellenic Post) since 2003, and his artworks are included in the collection of art objects.

In 2018, the artist donated to his particular homeland, Amfilochia, the work – “Olive tree of Amfilochia” about 3 meters high, which was placed in the central square of the city.
In 2019, the artist’s largest olive tree, 3.50 meters high, was placed in the new home of the International Olympic Committee in Lausanne. It was presented during the inauguration ceremony in June 2019 in the presence of all the “Immortals” and members of the IOC as well as many great Olympic winners.
