25 OCT '17

The Secrets, art exhibition will be hosted by My Odyssey and will be held from 26th October to 10th November

Secrets exhibition is part of the Athens Intersection Cultural Program in collaboration with Athens Trigono pilot project to regenerate the Commercial Triangle of Athens. The exhibition is hosted by My Odyssey, member of the Hellas Group premium travel agency, specialized in exclusive, high quality travel services.It is not by chance that the exhibition will be hosted in a historical building located on Vassilikis Street in the center of Athens. The original 1920’s private estate designed and built by Ernst Ziller in 1893, has adapted to re-use, serving over the years, multiple purposes, both commercial and private. It has been marked in the collective memory of the Athenians as the renowned “Park Hotel” in the 1920’s, later as a Brazilian textile company, and today houses the offices of the Hellas Group.

Secrets exhibition challenges us to surface past narratives and retrieve them into the culture of the present. Identity, memory and intergenerational links to the past, motivate 8 visual artists to take on the role of contemporary archaeologists and redefine everyday elements of our modern history. Their quest will reveal that true value lies in the process of discovery and revelation. Within a hidden, secretive setting, surface unimaginable yet genuine secrets.
