\u0395leni Marneri Galerie presents the jewelry exhibition Fragments from an Aegean Shore.<\/em>\u00a0Danae Natsis<\/strong> is a Greek\/Australian contemporary jeweler living and working in Sydney, Australia.\u00a0Lou Efstathiou<\/strong> is a Greek\/American painter and sculptor living and working in Athens, Greece. In this body of collaborative work, they have brought together their shared love of Greek cultural history, ancient artifacts, the sea, and humorous and intimate objects.<\/p>\n

For many years Lou Efstathiou, his family, and friends, have spent time collecting sea-worn ceramic tile fragments from a beach on the island of Kea where Lou has his summer studio. Lou started drawing amusing and intimate portraits of fish of the Aegean, leisurely women, and Minoan goddesses on these tiles, as well as on found wood panels. He at first made the tile drawings as miniatures to amuse himself and friends and family with a sense of Aristophanic humor.<\/p>\n

For Danae Natsis, Lou\u2019s works continue the marine themes in her work, as well as her interest in ancient artifacts and treasures from under the sea. She transforms these artworks into personal adornments according to the tradition of miniature portrait jewelry. Danae is interested in the transformation of everyday material, clay, into a precious artifact \u2013 in this case, with the intervention of time and two contemporary artists, a simulacrum of an ancient fragment.<\/p>\n

Opening: Thursday 20 July 2017, 19:00 – 22:00<\/strong><\/p>\n

Duration: 20.07.17 – 20.8.17<\/strong><\/p>\n

*\u03a4he Galerie will be closed for summer vacations from the 6th to the 20th of August.<\/em><\/p>\n
