The Exhibition "All arts for Karagiozis" in Zakynthos!
How many heroes of the modern Greek shadow theater can fit in a fairytale like village?
How can stone, clay and metal chat with the figures and shadows of Karagiozis?
One hundred original sculptural compositions by Dimitris Avouris, made with materials taken out from the sea, together with metal figures by Apostolos Domtzidis, create a fairytale like setting at the Avouris Theater, in the Cultural Village "Skalia" in Tragaki, Zakynthos.
The travelling exhibition "All arts for Karagiozis" continues its journey, paying an artistic tribute to the humble hero of the modern Greek shadow theater. The collection of the shadow player Apostolos Domtzidis, as well as works by collaborators from all over Greece, are the trigger to set up a different open air scenery at the Avouri Theater. The paintings of Mrs. Garyfallia Bari with Karagiozis theme fill the exhibition and invite us to discover them. The works of art are accompanied with new original songs for Karagiozis, with lyrics by Dimitris Avouris and music by Iro Pavlopoulou and Dionysis Boukouvalas. Photographs by Christos Simatos and other photographers transmit vivid images and emotions.
The exhibition "All arts for Karagiozis" is addressed to younger and older visitors and presents an enjoyable walk through the arts of sculpture, painting, photography, literature, connected to Karagiozis.
The purpose of the exhibition is to make us laugh, think but also move us, so that in the magical way of the shadow theater we can eat, drink and go to bed hungry, at Karagiozis's wedding with the arts!
The exhibition is accompanied by special newspaper issues with the daily columns of Karagiozis' comments, from the newspapers "Lakonikos Typos" of Laconia and "Empros" of Xanthi.
