Planning Ahead | Athens News 13 Jun 2012 http://www.athensnews.gr/issue/13496/55567 by Helen Iatrou , Despina Pavlaki 17 May 2012 International Museum Day Within the framework of its participation in this year’s International Museum Day (May 18), the Museum of Greek Folk Art hosts an exhibition of interesting photographs by members of Kethea Paremvasi, a programme for substance-dependent individuals. Entitled Palea Athina (Old Athens), the images offer meaningful insight into how the budding photographers view their chaotic city. The odd note of hope, unexpected splashes of colour and visual recollections of the capital when life was a great deal simpler characterise the collection of 57 photographs on show. Paremvasi chose to cast its focus on the historic centre as it wanted to document the crumbling buildings and the narrow alleyways as well as highlight the contrasts between ancient and modernday life. On at the Museum of Greek Folk Art (The Bathhouse of the Winds, 8 Kyrristou St, Plaka) until June 3. Launch on May 18 at noon. Opening hours: Wednesday through Monday 9am to 3pm. For further info, phone 210-322-9031 or visit www.melt.gr For more on International Museum Day events, see pages 16 & 33 Ambelostudio Fine artist Melina Moisidelis moves her painter’s studio into the open for 12 consecutive hours in an effort to engage with urban nature and the people who inhabit it Citypark life is not Greece’s strongest point. Unless you own a dog that needs walking, urban patches of greenery are usually ignored or traversed in a hurry on your way to somewhere less leafy. In an effort to turn this around, Spanish- trained painter Melina Moisidelis temporarily moves her studio to a tiny little park between the busy intersection of Alexandras and Kifisias avenues, a little slice of paradise called Ambelokipi (Greek for “vineyard and garden”) Square. This urban intervention is part of the 8 to 8: State of Creative Emergency series, currently on its third edition. “I will transport my studio to a public location, where I will coexist with the natural environment and invite passers-by to spend a day reflecting and discussing the relationship between art and nature, while encouraging contemplation and enjoyment of that spot.” This little-regarded patch of land is smack-dab in the middle of a busy commercial area and although it handles heavy human traffic on a daily basis, it never actually manages to attract the attention of the people who traverse it. During her 12-hour stint in her “Ambelostudio”, Moisidelis will continue to work on her Third Women series, based on the book The Third Woman by French philosopher and sociologist Gilles Lipovetsky and consisting of females encased in plexiglas domes or portraits emerging behind crumbling walls. “Using aspects of the female body, I reflect on women’s position in contemporary society,“ says the artist, who paints faces and writhing silhouettes resisting, revolting from and reaffirming their identity. Some of the finished work will be mounted around the little square, transforming this overlooked location into a platform of onsite interaction between the public and the private. 8 to 8: State of Creative Emergency is an initiative originating with artist Blanka Amezkua according to which creative minds are invited to construct and execute an art project within 12 hours (from 8am to 8pm) that encourages public participation. Ambelostudio - May 19 (8am-8pm) at Ambelokipi Square (Intersection of Vas Sofias & Alexandras aves at Zacharof St) For info about other 8 to 8 projects, visit www.blankaamezkua.com/8to8 From MTV to YouTube Filmmaker Nikos Soulis, the directorial force behind some 2,500 music videos, shares his passion with participants in an eight-part workshop that will result in a collective music video with a connoisseur of this idiosyncratic genre guiding you every step of the way - May 21-25 at Loukoumi Bar (3 Avissianias Square, tel 698050365).

RIGAS VELESTINLIS RIGAS AND KORA´S The total lack of reliable biographical information regarding the formative years of Rigas has been compensated by local legend and tradition. He was born in Velestino, Thessaly (1757?), where he received his basic education. His quest for further education took him to Constantinople (1774?) where he was introduced into Phanariot circles. He became a clerk to the noble family of Ypsilantis (1785) and later went to Walla- chia, perhaps having been admitted to Masonic circles. His contact with the Phanariot world, his time spent close to Ka- tartzis, a leading Greek proponent of the Enlightenment, and his knowledge of foreign languages, which enabled him to fol- low European intellectual developments, all served to broaden his horizons.

  • National Museums in Greece: History, Ideology, Narratives Andromache Gazi
    Building National Museums in Europe 1750-2010. Conference proceedings from EuNaMus, European National Museums: Identity Politics, the Uses of the Past and the European Citizen, Bologna 28-30 April 2011. Peter Aronsson & Gabriella Elgenius (eds) EuNaMus Report No 1. Published by Linköping University Electronic Press: http://www.ep.liu.se/ecp_home/index.en.aspx?issue=064 © The Author. National museums in Greece: History, Ideology, Narratives Andromache Gazi Summary Greek national identity has been moulded on a threefold historical scheme that was initially sketched in the second quarter of the nineteenth century and had been crystallized by the first decades of the twentieth century. This scheme evolved gradually according to changing political and ideological circumstances. The sense of identity was initially based on Greece’s affinity to classical antiquity that was exalted to a revered model. When this affinity was disputed, the - previously discarded - Byzantine heritage was reassessed and accepted as an integral part of national heritage while aspects of folk life started being studied in order to provide evidence of the unbroken continuity of the nation down the centuries. Thus, by the end of the nineteenth century Greeks could pride themselves for being the heirs of a famous classical heritage, an important Byzantine legacy, and of a living folk tradition some aspects of which - it was believed - might be traced back to antiquity. This ideological process had been consolidated by the 1920s and has since served as the backbone of national master narratives. National museums such as the National Archaeological Museum (henceforth NAM), the Byzantine and Christian Museum (henceforth BCM), the Museum of Greek Folk Culture (henceforth MGFA) and the National Historical Museum are entrenched in this scheme, support the master narrative and present the notion of an eternal Hellenic spirit that guides the nation through different historical periods.

Diseases of the colon and rectum in children such as anorectal malformations, Hirschsprung’s disease, inflammatory bowel disease, idiopathic constipation and fecal incontinence present a special chal- lenge to pediatric surgeons. Many of these diseases have a major impact on quality of life and warrant long-term follow-up and treatment into adulthood. In order to provide the best medical and surgical care to children with colorectal diseases, it is essential that we have the highest possible standards of education, training and research. The 28th International Meeting of the Pediatric Colorectal Club aims to provide up-to-date clinical and scientific information on all aspects of pediatric colorectal diseases and malformations to practicing pediatric surgeons, pediatric urologists, pediatricians, pediatric gas- troenterologists, basic scientists, nurses and patient support groups.
