Exhibition Of Greek And Japanese Contemporary Printmaking

Printmaking as a form of visual creation is particularly relevant in both Greece and Japan.

The exhibition “Greek and Japanese contemporary printmaking” which is on display from 15th to 20th March, gives us the opportunity to focus on the art of the two cultures.

Greek and Japanese printmakers each present their own methods of expression and techniques in the creation of original artworks, which provide the opportunity to understand more about the culture and art of the two countries.

Artists with different backgrounds, experiences and history record their quests and concerns.

The exhibition at the Municipal Art Gallery of Piraeus is a tribute to the art of printmaking with participation by 44 Greek artists and 65 Japanese artists with more than 120 original prints.

The exhibition is also enriched by the workshop of Japanese woodcut on Sunday March 17th, from 12:00 - 14:00.
