Eftihis Patsourakis - ΖΩΓΡΑΦΙΚΗ/PAINTING
Tue-Sat: 11-6pm
Eftihis Patsourakis has been exploring identity and memory through the years and as his practice and work develop, deriving his inspiration and research from the vernacular imagery of the everyday, the bygone and the so-called forgotten, he has created a universe of apparitions and has become the master of remakes.
A classic gatherer of immense amounts of thrown away matter, who then selects it and reuses it, either when the work takes its final form as an installation, or a painting of a photograph chosen amidst hundreds that rest in the darkness of family albums or the boxes populating flea markets and various shops in his home town Athens. For the past ten years he has been mainly painting.
It is with enthusiasm to enter the season with a series of exhibitions by Eftihis Patsourakis at the gallery juxtaposed with a solo presentation at ARCO, Madrid (Feb 22-26). As Painting marks the fourth exhibition of the artist with the gallery, we are excited to present this body of abstract works for the first time alongside a stream of new photorealistic paintings.
