Thirteen visual artists present their works and cite works by important colleagues (Greek and foreign), who inspired or influenced their aesthetics and style.
Through the presentation of the artists themselves, the universality of visual art and how this universality - through their work - is constituted and influenced by incorporating elements from their experiential and spiritual tradition and experience. The Athens School of Fine Arts has been an advisor to the series.
Today:
"Aristomenis Theodoropoulos"
Episode 2
Aristomenis Theodoropoulos, visual artist and graduate of the Athens School of Fine Arts (2005–2010), with both solo and group exhibitions to his credit, speaks to us about his work.
His artistic journey began with figurative painting, which in his current works emerges through a freer form of expression.
He also chooses to reflect on two significant artists: Yannoulis Chalepas, whose fragile condition and personal drama he feels a deep emotional connection with, and Francis Bacon, whose oeuvre and recurring painterly motifs have profoundly influenced him.
