Bouteas
CITRONNE Gallery in collaboration with the Ephorate of Antiquities of Piraeus and Islands co-organises and co-curates Yannis Bouteas’s exhibition "Stratifications – Transformations" at the Archaeological Museum of Poros. Art historian Dr. Tatiana Spinari-Pollali and archaeologist Dr. Maria Giannopoulou co-curate the exhibition.
"Stratifications – Transformations" is an exhibition that focuses on the concept of timelessness. Bouteas's objects-symbols, coming directly from everyday life, start a dialogue with the ancient objects of the archaeological museum, and may initially surprise the visitor. A man of antiquity would probably feel a similar surprise if he saw his personal objects in the museum displays today, accompanied by scientific theories and (mis)interpretations.
Bouteas's installation ultimately seems like an unexpected preview of an archaeological museum of the - perhaps not so distant - future.
