The group exhibition 'Women’s Matters', organized by the Municipality of Larissa at the Municipal Art Gallery - G.I. Katsigras Museum, curated by art historian Bia Papadopoulou, will open to the public on February 21, 2026. Thirty-three Greek women artists from various places, epochs and generations, using different expressive media, compose an artistic anthropological narrative around the social role and the position of women.
Participating artists: Artemis Alcalay, Εleni Boukouri-Altamoura, Annita Argiroiliopoulou, Ria Dama Katerina Diakomi, Eleni Exarchou, Mary Zygouri, Demi Kaia, Thaleia Flora-Karavia, Katerina Katsifaraki, Sofia Laskaridou, Georgia Lale, Despina Meimaroglou, Katerina Mertzani, Jeny Bampali, Lina Bebi, Emilia Bouriti, Anita Xanthou, Leda Papaconstantinou, Nina Papaconstantinou, Margarita Petrova, Makrina Prousali, Christina Mitrentse, Aspa Stassinopoulou, Eliza Soroga, Fani Sofologi|Slobodanka Stupar, Eleni Tzirtzilaki, Kleopatra Tsali, Rena Tsitota, Efi Fouriki, Maria Adromachi Chatzinikolaou, Thalia Chioti
The works by the first three women artists of the newly founded Greek state form the exhibition’s starting point: Eleni Boukouri-Altamoura, Thaleia Flora-Karavia, and Sofia Laskaridou. With their bold, non-conventional conduct, their passion and devotion to art, they opened the path to other female artists in a variety of ways. They enhance the exhibition with a historical background while their oeuvre and lives harmonically intertwine with the show’s conceptual rationale. A dialogue is, thus, established between the past and the present.
'Women’s Matters' is an enlarged evolution of the homonymous exhibition that took place at the Municipal Art Gallery of Athens in 2024, in which seventeen living artists from different generations participated. The project was conceived especially for the Municipal Art Gallery - G.I. Katsigras Museum in relation to its architectural space.
