Means To Soothe The Pain: Visual Arts Exhibition By Chrysostomos Mousmoulidis
The solo exhibition with paintings by Chrysostomos Mousmoulidis is reopening.
 
The Hellenic American Union presents in cooperation with Hellenic American College (HAEC) and Technochoros Art Gallery, in its Kennedy Gallery, the visual arts exhibition by Chrysostomos Mousmoulidis. The exhibition, which is organized under the aegis of the George Zongolopoulos Foundation, is curated by Vivi Vasilopoulou.

Taking into account the safety of visitors and personnel, the instructions, measures, and guidelines announced by relevant authorities to prevent the spread of COVID-19, are followed during your visit at the Hellenic American Union building and exhibition venues.

Chrysostomos Mousmoulidis creates arks of fragmentary moments, filled with sensitivity, re-using canvases and frames from previous works that bear testimony to an earlier self. He combines these (stitches together) to create new works, in which many older ones lie concealed. In some of these new works, hidden behind the bold stitches and patches of a self and a past that opens wounds he seeks to heal, are poems, attestations of his psyche. Each work is a silent cry of anguish and a place of refuge for the artist.
