Michalis Manoussakis constructs his own reality, which bears little similarity with the real world. The human figures are expressed in an entirely personal way and created by different textures by charcoal and paint on the carved wooden surface.
Nocturnal Walk (2002-2003) by Edouard SacaillanThe Sotiris Felios Collection

Nocturnal Walk
2002-2003
Edouard Sacaillan’s multicoloured spectators are enclosed, crowded, and lined up by the painter one beside the other, with no distance between them, but also without interpersonal contact; they watch us as we watch them.

2005
Alexis Kyritsopoulos composes dreamscapes and transports us to cities in the sky, to other fantastical, multicoloured, optimistic worlds.
Pantelis Chandris
Untitled (from the “Substance” series)
2003
Pantelis Chandris challenges the plasticity of the human figure, recreating it in polyester. The male figure takes on human existence; it is formally defined, by the clothing, the coat and head cover, as the image of a walker, and appears strange, imposing and silent.

Untitled
2009
Tassos Missouras depicts a human figure deep in thought. The parts of the body, face and hands are rendered in sharp detail with the focus of the painting lying heavily on the work’s conceptual dimension.
Nude (2010) by Thanassis MakrisThe Sotiris Felios Collection
Thanassis Makris
Nude
2010
Thanassis Makris oscillates between the figurative and the highly expressionist rendering the bare flesh of the female bodies. He masterfully projects the forms, rendered through the appropriate use of colour, challenging the viewer with his expressive eloquence.

Untitled
2012
Dimitris Hantzopoulos presents a deserted city, under threat by a strange invader. The rendering is strictly realistic, but the atmosphere of the work, evocative through and through, alludes to scenes from science fiction, where the human presence is almost non-existent.
