Group Exhibition
Curator: Costis Antoniadis

18 October - 16 November 2003



The new production of the Thessaloniki Museum of Photography concerns the portrayal of interior spaces. The curator of the exhibition and director of the TMP, Mr. Costis Antoniadis, characterises it with a brief comment:

Personal, everyday spaces, working spaces, waiting rooms, spaces of confinement or recreation, rooms that are empty or occupied - all these constitute the scene of a narration on the life of the people that dwelled in them. At the same time, a variety of photographic approaches, extending over a wide spectre of photographic expression are embodied in these works. Through documentary photographs, recording the actual space in detail, and at other times, through the staging or construction and photographing of fictitious spaces, the artists participating in this exhibition trace personal stories, wishes or dreams. They reconstruct contemporary Greek reality in a minimalist fashion through a social or poetic language.
