Σύνταξη/επιμέλεια από τον/την Νατάσσα Βησσαρίωνος

Tracing the cross-currents of Byzantine and Renaissance influences in the workshops of 15^th and 16^th century Crete — the setting in which El Greco received his artistic education — the show is the first to focus on the evolution of the multifaceted relationship of Cretan painters with Western art during that rich period.

Curated for the Onassis Cultural Center by Dr. Anastasia Drandaki, Curator of the Byzantine Collection at the Benaki Museum, Athens, the show will present 46 exceptional works from public and private collections in Greece, Europe, the United States and Canada, many of which will be travelling to the U.S. for the first time. The official inauguration will take place on December 8, by the Culture and Tourism minister Pavlos Geroulanos and the Archbishop of Crete, Irineos.
