The visual identity of the 27th Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival, set to begin on March 6, has been unveiled with the presentation of posters designed by Dimitris Anastasiou.
The figures portrayed in the three paintings that make up the posters of the 27th Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival embark on a journey across the Greek landscape, but also to the cities of the future. Without us ever taking a glance on their faces, the people in the Festival’s posters look ahead, towards what is coming up next. The three paintings converse with the tributes and the thematics of this year’s Festival. In the artist’s words: “The three paintings compose a three-fold narrative. If placed aligned, each serves as a continuation of the previous one. The two first (that depict a field of land and a provincial Greek town of the 1960s) allude to the Greek landscape. The third one (that portrays an absurd and imaginary city, whether utopian or dystopian) nods to Artificial Intelligence. Viewers, like time travelers, move within these landscapes.”
