Costas Lefkochir – Maria Vlandi @ Apothiki Art Center

On Wednesday 13 July 2005 at 20.00, Dirk Drijbooms (Apothiki Art Gallery) and Maria Demetriades (Medusa Art Gallery) are presenting the works of the painter Costas Lefkochir and the sculptor Maria Vlanti. Costas Lefkochir demonstrates a unique and mystical relation with light, the latter being the core of his inspiration. This exquisite bond has undoubtedly found a way to express itself in various contexts, yet without ever being questioned. This bright source has been deeply treasured and, above all,totaly illuminated the artist’s work, displaying its major importance. Maria Vlanti gives clay an abstract shape of natural size, glorifying the element of fire and, on the same time, revealing how a contemporary artist can create new forms and shapes, being influenced by the history of her home country. An interesting, philosophical aspect coinciding with a rather structured, aesthetic approach to the temporary depiction of the modern world. Duration of Exhibition: 13 July – 31 July 2005
