21Greek Contemporary Artists Colors of Greece GREEK CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS GREEK CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS21 COLORS OF GREECE IN THE HAMPTONS SPONSOR www.chrysostomelaw.com www.jopeters.com www.skygreece.com COLORS OF GREECE IN THE HAMPTONS A unique Fine Art Exhibition with a vision of modern Greek life and cul- ture under the auspices of the Greek Orthodox Church of the Hamptons along with the collaborative support of the Greek artists themselves. The exhibition’s title «Colors of Greece» will explore contemporary artists and their masterful depictions of the illuminated, inexorable Greek spirit. The renowned artists are inspired by Greece’s intense light, vivid colors, mythic landscapes, and the endless, magical seas of blue. Each contemporary artist has lived the challenge to transform the daily crisis of present Greece into a personal and harmonious, visual statement. 60 artworks of 21 artists from Greece travel to the Hamptons to demon- strate the current face of modern Greek painting. At an extremely difficult political time in Greece's history, and under adverse financial circumstances, «Colors of Greece» is a reminder of the beauty, excellence, and perseverance of, as Will Durant rightfully de- scribed, «the Morningstar of the Western World». portraits 21of the artists daphne | Angelidou paschalis | Angelidis | Angelos stefanos | Daskalakis maria | Filopoulou savas | Georgiadis irene | Iliopoulou sophia | Kalogeropoulou theofilos | Katsipanos yannis | Kondaratos olga | Maria dimitris| Milionis tassos | Missouras ignatios | Mitrofanous nikos | Moschos eva | Nikolakaki christos | Pallantzas george | Tornaritis philip | Tsiaras | Vago chryssa | Verghi philip Tsiaras Philip Tsiaras is an international Greek artist who lives and works in New York City.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE September 11, 2014 MEDIA CONTACTS: Rebecca Baldwin Nina Litoff (312) 443-3625 (312) 443-3363 [email protected] [email protected] THE ART INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO PRESENTS HEAVEN AND EARTH: ART OF BYZANTIUM FROM GREEK COLLECTIONS Over 60 Works From Greece Represent Life in the Empire that Lasted for More than a Millennium A new exhibition at the Art Institute of Chicago, Heaven and Earth: Art of Byzantium from Greek Collections, presents more than 60 superb artworks of the Byzantine era, from the 4th to the 15th centuries. Organized by the Hellenic Ministry of Culture and Sports of Athens, Greece, with the collaboration of the Benaki Museum, Athens, and originally exhibited at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, and the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, the exhibition includes major artistic holdings from Greece consisting of mosaics, sculptures, manuscripts, luxury glass, silver, personal adornments, liturgical textiles, icons, and wall paintings. About one third of the original exhibition will be presented in the Art Institute’s Mary and Michael Jaharis Galleries of Greek, Roman, and Byzantine Art from September 27, 2014, through February 15, 2015. For more than 1,000 years, Greece was part of the vast Byzantine Empire, established in 330 A.D. by the emperor Constantine the Great, who moved the capital of the Roman Empire east to a small town named Byzantium in modern-day Turkey. Renamed for him and transformed into Constantinople, Byzantium would come to represent an empire of splendor and power that endured for more than a millennium. Greek replaced Latin as the official language, and Greece itself was home to important centers of theology, scholarship, and artistic production—as 1 evidenced by the luxurious manuscripts displayed in the exhibition.

    Conference Guide Conference Venue Conference Location: Radisson Blu Athens Park Hotel 5* 5Hotel Athens” Radisson Blu Park Hotel Athens first opened its doors in 1976 on the border of the central park of Athens, Pedion Areos (Martian Field), in a safe part of the city. For 35 years the lovely park has been a wonderful host and marked the very identity of this leading deluxe hotel. Now, we thought, it is time for the hotel to host the park inside. This was the inspiration behind our recent renovation, which came to prove a virtual rebirth for Park Hotel Athens. Address: 10 Alexandras Ave. -10682 Athens-Greece Tel: +30 210 8894500 Fax: +30 210 8238420 URL: http://www.rbathenspark.com/index.php History of Athens According to tradition, Athens was governed until c.1000 B.C. by Ionian kings, who had gained suzerainty over all Attica. After the Ionian kings Athens was rigidly governed by its aristocrats through the archontate until Solon began to enact liberal reforms in 594 B.C. Solon abolished serfdom, modified the harsh laws attributed to Draco (who had governed Athens c.621 B.C.), and altered the economy and constitution to give power to all the propertied classes, thus establishing a limited democracy. His economic reforms were largely retained when Athens came under (560–511 B.C.) the rule of the tyrant Pisistratus and his sons Hippias and Hipparchus. During this period the city's economy boomed and its culture flourished. Building on the system of Solon, Cleisthenes then established a democracy for the freemen of Athens, and the city remained a democracy during most of the years of its greatness.
