Exhibition "Greece. My Moments of Happiness"

January 22 at 18. 30 in the Gallery "On Kashirka" Association "Exhibition Halls of Moscow" will open the exhibition "Greece. My moments of happiness ”, dedicated to the Year of Greece in Russia.

The exhibition project is based on the works of the finalists of the international photo contest organized by the Greek Cultural Center in Moscow, the Central Library of the South-Western Administrative District of Moscow (Dante Alighieri Library) and the M-35 Photo Club in the Na Kashirka Gallery. 415 participants from 12 countries participated in the competition, sending a total of 1930 photos. The expert council selected 109 finalists whose works will be presented at the exhibition. At the opening of the exhibition, the winner will be announced, who will be awarded the main prize - a sea cruise on the Greek islands.

Also at the exhibition are the works of a group of ceramic artists from Moscow and St. Petersburg, for which ancient Greek ceramics: black-figured and red-figured vessels, vases, kiliks, lekifs, has always been a measure of the perfection of painting, composition, linear plastics. Ceramic sculpture, decorative compositions, objects, dishes, panels and vessels made of chamotte, porcelain and faience are exhibited. According to the curators, the joint existence of art forms so diverse in emotional strength - ceramics, known since ancient times, and photography, which appeared relatively recently - is deeply symbolic. Photographs convey a momentary sense of happiness - moments experienced relatively recently, and objects made of ceramics are likely to survive both the current generation of people and the next.

Ceramic artists: Tatyana Punans, Marina Stepanova-Lanskaya, Irina Chirikova, Galina Antipova, Vladimir Petrov, Natalya Poltoratskaya, Olga Karelits, Tatyana Brigadirova, Victor Nikolaev, Elena Malyavina, Vasily Shlychkov, Olga Khan, Ekaterina Yakovleva, Natalya Bodrikova, Daria Orochko, Alexandra Stvora, Elena Gambaryan, Ekaterina Bazlova, Anna Filippova, Anna Andrianova, Nikolai Turkin, Ekaterina Sukhareva, Julia Repina, Elena Branovitskaya, Irina German, Yaroslava Danilyuk, Nadia Avad.
