The biggest annual visual event in Greece, Art Athina 2024<\/strong>, gives the art- loving public the opportunity to get to know the latest proposals of the galleries, to see not only historical works but also contemporary ones and to get in touch with the prevailing trends and currents in Greece and abroad. The Zappeion Megaro<\/strong> for one more year from September 19 to 23<\/strong> becomes a meeting point of different artistic paths with contemporary art as a central axis. Sianti Gallery at Booth L27<\/strong> participates in the diverse event, which is again this year under the auspices of S.A. of the President of the Republic, Katerina Sakellaropoulou, with \u201cThree Paintings of the Illusion\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Three artists, Leonidas Giannakopoulos, Lila Belivanaki and Vassilis Selimas, recognizing the urgent need to renew painting, exhibit post- surrealist works, which complete the visual identity of the fair. The curator of the exhibition, Thanasis Moutsopoulos notes about this parasthetic, visionary puzzle, which synthesizes all aspects of mass culture, comics and street art, video games and even tattoos.<\/p>\n

\u201cA whole history of painting parades before the viewer, from medieval motifs to painted versions of the modern and from there to pop art and comics and even video games. The three of them accept that the painting perspective has changed and use the process of television zapping or internet surfing as components of a new painting perception. If the so- called Leipzig school in Europe and the Californian scene around the magazine of longing broke the pre- modern taboo of using a single painting language in a box, introducing all kinds of modifications, these three painters explore the (from what it seems, limitless) possibilities of this painting mixture\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
