Nikos Papadimitriou (GR) -Once upon a time The Story of Art: Retold
TinT gallery's "Story-telling" project, presents two young and emerging artists, Georgia Kotretsos and Nikos Papadimitriou, commenting aspects of the history of art through contemporary art works. Both artists deal with matters of history of art throughout their works, either by commenting on the distance/affection between history of art and contemporary art (Nikos Papadimtiriou), or by investigating the way the identity of an artwork is made up inside the museum (Georgia Kotretsos). A bronze sculpture of a "Headless horseman" and an installation including the actual Gombrich's "Story of Art" book, are both part of the "Story-telling" project.
