About the artist
About the exhibition
The light of the Mediterranean, and particularly of the Greek earth and sea, has been captured and rendered in oils with great sensitivity by Dimitris Koukos. A noteworthy and charismatic artist, he rekindles his inspiration and idiom from the inside, without going against his fundamental principles. One could consider his works to be landscapes-cum-psychographs. In a semi-representational to abstract style, his works exude the atmosphere of the islands – Crete, Rhodes, Syros, Aegina, Santorini, Corfu, Patmos, Paros, Sifnos and others – that this inspired artist visits every year. He is an artist who has made his psyche one and the same with his palette and manages to capture even the most infinitesimal tone of the Greek light and atmosphere. His works are metaphysical landscapes, enduring witnesses to the Greek light.
