Partial gift, Robert Spitzer, by exchange, 1970. © ADAGP, Paris and DACS, London 2019. Photo: Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York #TakisMACBA “Electromagnetism is an infinite, invisible thing, […] I would like to render it visible so as to communicate its existence and make its importance known; I would like to make visible this invisible, colourless, non-sensual, naked world which cannot irritate our eye, taste or sex. Which is simply pure thought.” Takis Meier Building Level 0 PANAYIOTIS VASSILAKIS, KNOWN AS TAKIS, was born in Athens in 1925 and died in August 2019. He was a member of the Resistance during the German occupation of Greece, and he was imprisoned during the Greek Civil War, which broke out in 1946. He was a self-taught artist who began by studying classic ancient sculpture. He went to Paris in 1954 and lived there for long periods of time. It was the city where he also started exploring the sculptural possibilities of electromagnetism. For Takis, the visual qualities of an artwork were not the most important ones: “What I was obsessed with was the concept of energy.” This exhibition is not chronological. Instead, it is arranged by some of the most outstanding aspects of Takis’s work. In the mid-1950s, Takis began experimenting with the use of energy and movement in sculpture. “What I was interested in was the idea of bringing a new, uninterrupted and living force to iron sculpture.

Life, as we know it, has changed for all of us. It has been almost three weeks since theatres and cultural venues closed down, and day by day we have come to realise how important contact with the living Arts is in our lives. Theatres are hubs, places of reflection, entertainment, homes we go to in groups, audiences and artists alike, hoping for something that real life cannot offer us. Can anyone fathom what our society will be like after this crisis and how important its cultural reflection will be through artist insight and sensitivity? The presence of an international festival will be, more than ever, a need and our duty. The Athens & Epidaurus Festival is an international event that has been warmly embraced by audiences and artists for 65 years. Normally on this day we would all be at Peiraios 260, together with friends, artists and journalists, to announce our programme. This is a programme we have been working on for seven months now, in collaboration with the entire Festival team and with the practical support of our Board of Directors, as well as my invaluable team of artistic advisors: Stefanie Carp for international theatre productions, Costa Pilavachi for music, Ilias Chatzigeorgiou for dance and Evi Nakou for artistic research and audience development.

  • Michael Stevens' the Road to Interzone
    “The scholarship surrounding the life and work of William Burroughs is in the midst of a renaissance. Students of Burroughs are turning away from myths, legends, and sensationalistic biographical detail in order to delve deeply into textual analysis, archival research, and explorations of literary and artistic history. Michael Stevens’ The Road to Interzone is an important part of this changing landscape. In a manner similar to Ralph Maud’s Charles Olson’s Reading, The Road to Interzone places the life and literature of “el Hombre Invisible” into sharper focus by listing and commenting on, in obsessive detail, the breadth of literary material Burroughs read, referred to, researched, and reviewed. Stevens reveals Burroughs to be a man of letters and of great learning, while simultaneously shedding light on the personal obsessions, pet theories, childhood favorites, and guilty pleasures, which make Burroughs such a unique and fascinating figure. Stevens’ book provides a wealth of new and important information for those deeply interested in Burroughs and will no doubt prove essential to future scholarship. Like Oliver Harris’ The Secret of Fascination and Robert Sobieszek’s Ports of Entry before it, The Road to Interzone is an indispensable addition to the canon of Burroughs Studies.” -Jed Birmingham “Michael Stevens has created a new kind of biography out of love for William S. Burroughs and love of books. Author worship and bibliophilia become one at the point of obsession, which of course is the point where they become interesting. Burroughs’ reading was intense and far flung, and Stevens has sleuthed out a portrait of that reading--the books Burroughs lent his name to in the form of introductions and blurbs, the books in his various libraries, the books he refers to, the books that found their way into his writing, and much more! Along with lively notes from Stevens, we have Burroughs throughout--his opinions, perceptions, the ‘grain of his voice.’ That in itself makes Stevens’ book a notable achievement.

He remains a ground-breaking artist today. This exhibition includes work from across his seventy- year career. Born in 1925 in Athens, the self-taught artist began by studying ancient sculpture before moving in a radically new direction.

  • PRESS RELEASE 3 April 2019 TATE MODERN 3 July
    PRESS RELEASE 3 April 2019 TATE MODERN TAKIS 3 July – 27 October 2019 Supported by Tate International Council Open daily 10.00 – 18.00 and until 22.00 on Friday and Saturday For public information call +44(0)20 7887 8888, visit tate.org.uk or follow @Tate #Takis Over a 70-year career, Takis (Panayiotis Vassilakis, b.1925) has created some of the most innovative art of the 20th century. A sculptor of magnetism, light and sound, he seeks out the essential poetry and beauty of the electromagnetic universe. Takis was one of the most original artistic voices in Europe from the 1960s and remains a pioneering figure today. Tate Modern will stage Takis’ largest exhibition in the UK, bringing together over 70 works, including a rarely-seen Magnetic Fields installation, musical devices generating resonant and random sounds, and forests of his pivotal Signals. Born in Athens in 1925, Takis is a self-taught artist who moved to Paris in 1954 and became a key figure in the artistic and literary circles of Paris, London and New York. His inventions earned him the admiration of the international avant-garde, from William S. Burroughs and the American Beat poets to artists including Marcel Duchamp. Takis was at the forefront of kinetic art and pioneered new forms of sculpture, painting and musical structures to harness invisible natural forces. Throughout his career, he produced antennae-like sculptures called Signals – thin, flexible poles topped with found objects or electric lights – which gently sway in response to their surroundings. His idea for these works emerged while waiting at Calais train station surrounded by ‘monster- eyes’ going on and off in a ‘jungle of iron’.
