artAZ in Art Athina
We have participated in Art Athina, the International Contemporary Art Fair of Athens, twice: in 2010 & 2011.
The centrepiece of our presentation, in both occasions, was THE BOOK: a handmade, one hundred page art book – documentary of our art vision, featuring authentic works directly created on its pages by select artists-members of artAZ. A work of art in its own right, it stayed in the center of attention throughout the fair and enthused the audience and our own crew alike.
Event type: Art Fair
Curated by: Alexandra Kollaros
Date: May 2010 & May 2011
Location: Faliro Pavilion, Athens
Supported by: SONY Hellas, Sabotaz, Idaia Winery
In 2010 on show was also the artAZ Video (edited by Konstantin Adraktas), featuring moments from our art universe.
In 2011 we also presented THE WALL – a street art mural simulation by Alexandros Mavrogiannis (Yellowish), complemented by 7 strategically placed artworks. The participation was accented by a live happening: in association with make up artist Natasha Choutridi and her team, artworks by our street artists were transferred on the bare backs of 3 «artAZ models». The girls were unleashed at the Art Athina premises, attracting the audience’s attention and – of course – the camera lens.
