The artist\u2019s intense symbolisms are underlined by metal, plexiglass and led lighting. Inspired by mythology and Art History, Christos Antonaropoulos takes us on a tour through his unique, personal world, using light as his main element with an expressionistic, pop disposition.<\/p>\n

The exhibition is a follow-up of the artist\u2019s successful participation in Art Athina 2019<\/strong>, where he presented his works \u00abRusty Rembrandt\u00bb<\/b> and \u00abCaptive Caryatid\u00bb <\/b>at Booth E6 of Ikastikos Kiklos Sianti Gallery<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

ngg_shortcode_0_placeholder[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Vasiliki Sianti<\/strong><\/a>, Managing Director of the Ikastikos Kiklos Sianti Gallery<\/strong>, expresses her enthusiasm for this particular exhibition, stating:<\/p>\n

\u201cEven though I have come to know Christos Antonaropoulos only recently, I dare say he is <\/i>an artist of the soul<\/i><\/b>, with a deep love for what he is doing. I was especially impressed by his love for the baroque artists of the 16<\/i>th<\/i> and the 17<\/i>th<\/i> century. <\/i>As he himself describes it, he is inspired by the <\/i>\u2018light\u2019<\/i><\/b> in their work and he aspires to present this beauty of the light in his own, unique way. His works have a special <\/i>glow <\/i><\/b>of their own, but sometimes they also transmit a kind of <\/i>sweet melancholy<\/i><\/b>, as he has revealed to me during our discussions.  <\/i>The artist uses <\/i>\u2018blue\u2019<\/i><\/b> (one of most famous colors in art) in order to transmit to the viewer the <\/i>sense of light<\/i><\/b> in a <\/i>magical way. <\/i><\/b>During the Art Athina 2019<\/a>, I had the honor of presenting his work, which gave me the opportunity to draw from his creations as much energy as I could. I also had the joy of sharing with Christos our <\/i>common love for Art History<\/i><\/b>, as well as our <\/i>common goal of transfusing this love to the public in a contemporary point of view.\u201d<\/i><\/b>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_separator][vc_custom_heading text=”Watch video from the opening night:” font_container=”tag:h4|text_align:left” google_fonts=”font_family:Open%20Sans%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C800%2C800italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]
