Participation with the Taip project in the group exhibition Anathena, held at the DESTE Foundation for Contemporary Art, Athens, Greece from 20.10.2006 – 20.01.2007.
Featuring Athens-based artists and young creatives, “Anathena” highlights a dynamic aspect of local contemporary artistic production that has its affinities with street and music culture. It presents works largely unknown to the city’s mainstream art world, as these artists have long been using their own self-devised production and distribution mechanisms and channels. Most of the participating artists work professionally in diverse areas, such as graphic and web design, film, and music. Their work draws from different aspects of what is broadly termed “visual contemporary culture” and is frequently community-based, growing from social networks and friendships, common influences, and taste. —Marina Fokidis and Marina Gioti
