George Zongolopoulos: The Vision of Public Sculpture

In 2019, in collaboration with the George Zongolopoulos Foundation, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center organized the first exhibition exclusively dedicated to the Greek iconic artist's public sculptures, installed in Greece and other countries. As part of this exhibition, eight sculptures were on display in outdoor areas in the Ancient Agora, and twelve more sculptures were exhibited at the 4th floor of the National Library of Greece, supplemented by maquettes, constructions, drawings, videos, photos, and interactive exhibits that place these sculptures in the context of the public sites where they have been installed.

Our mission was to promote the exhibition to a fast-growing audience of travelers and assist visitors of SNFCC in learning the stories behind each of the best work samples of G. Zongolopoulos.
