The solo sculpture exhibition of Memas Kalogiratos at the Atrium of the Hermoupolis City Hall presents the multifaceted and poetic imprint of a decades-long journey in contemporary Greek sculpture. Through emblematic works from various periods, the artist highlights the transition from traditional materials to a postmodern idiom, proposing a sculptural language that transcends the visible and appeals to the viewer’s instinctive intelligence.
The exhibition serves as an existential exploration: symbolic figures, forms bearing the wounds of time, and subtle explosions of form lead to a contemplation of the body, memory, and cultural identity.
As part of the ‘Syros Culture 2025’ program, the exhibition participates in a broader dialogue with the island and its history, connecting the artist’s personal experience with the collective experience of the community
