Whatever happened to the walls of Athens?

The Eleftherios Venizelos Athens International Airport (Attiki Odos, Spata) presents two important exhibitions; the first presents the history of Athens and its environment, as well as the history of modern art in the public space, and the second presents video-projects by five known contemporary Greek artists on the theme of “the journey”.

The new exhibitions are freely accessible to the public from May to August 30.

“The walls of Athens and their fate”

Showroom “Art and Environment” (Departures Level)

“The walls of Athens and their Fate” grapple with street art, graffiti, the monumental recording of the forbidden, the ephemeral, as well as unconventional forms of art. Graffiti is an anonymous art, with specific forerunners, who are often disputed, but they have certainly written their own history.

Open 24 hours round the clock. Admission free.
