Founded by artist Dimitri Yin in 2018, Phoenix Athens Gallery and Residency is designed to demonstrate how a sustainable model for art can help individual artists and Athenian society.
With its residency program, production facilities and gallery space, Phoenix Athens offers artists and creatives with the time, space and facilities vital for professional and creative growth.
In seven years, the project has hosted over eighty artists and exhibited over 100 creative practitioners from Greece and abroad. With inspiration drawn from both the legacy of ancient Greece and the progressive culture of contemporary Athens, Phoenix Athens focuses on inclusion, social justice and ecology while encouraging professionalisation, experimentation and research.
Phoenix Athens offers public workshops, performances and events provided by visiting artists and creatives. Collaborations and exhibition proposals are of course welcome. For further information, please refer to our dedicated gallery page or send us an email.
IN NOVEMBER
My Father's House
Το σπίτι του πατέρα μου
New works by Antonia Jameson
November 30 - December 6th
Jameson is informed by her father’s childhood home in Athens, a monokatoikia which was left to ruin after her family returned to Crete in the early 2000s. Through installation, sculpture, video, projection, drawing, and animation Jameson translates a family history that has been muddled by movement and bureaucracy, and complicated by physical distance, time, and grief.
“Through my work, I am grasping at straws, trying to come to an understanding of my father’s relationship to Greece, a conversation we never had."
