George Zongolopoulos _ Alexia Xafopoulou 03.10 - 25.10.2024 Opening Thursday 3 October 2024, 18.00 - 21.30 Lola Nikolaou Gallery will present from Thursday 3 October to Friday 25 October, a selection of serial reproductions of works in small format by George Zongolopoulos from the eponymous Foundation. Among the works are the Olympic Circles, the sculptural composition at the entrance of the Thessaloniki International Exhibition Centre, the iconic Umbrellas on the beach in Thessaloniki, as well as other compositions with umbrellas, lenses and laminates. At the same time, the gallery will present the most recent painting compositions of the artist Alexia Xafopoulou, her series of works entitled The Great Wide Open, works on canvas of varying dimensions with mixed techniques. [... these irregular contours and asymmetries of volumes and planes, like the pieces of a puzzle with its own distinct logical constitution, could be personal clarifications of the perception of landscapes and paths. It is a spatial coexistence in succession, similar to the 'dredging' of thought, where a pictorial sense of time is served, while at the same time a topospatial attitude towards chaos is declared.
