Concept and curated by Eriphyli Veneri & Naira Stergiou

Mithimnis 43, Amerikis Square, Athens

12.12.2019

WALK IN. CHEEKY SMILE. THERE'S THE STAGE. SHUSHHHH (ATTENTION). KEEP YOUR BREATH. SMOKE THE FOG. STRAY OF LIGHT. HMMM. LOOK AT IT. LOOK AT ME. PLUCK AN EYELASH OF YOUR CHEEΚ. OOPS! HA! PEEK-A-BOO. WHAT DO YOU SEE?

The legendary Rebound Club Athens opens its doors in Amerikis Square to nine contemporary Greek visual artists. Stripped of music, its atmospheric underground space turns into a one-night stand action-field for interventions in the form of performance, video, installation and sculpture. Everything black, black only. The bar will be operating normally.

Despina Charitonidi | Olga Evangelidou | Panos Profitis | Vasilis Papageorgiou | Thalia Raftopoulou | Naira Stergiou | Alexandros Tzannis | Augustus Veinoglou | Eriphyli Veneri
