Description

SpartAn, in association with interviewroom11 and SNEHTA, presents ANOTHER ATHENS: a collaborative multi-platform project with participating artists and writers from Edinburgh and Athens, Greece. ANOTHER ATHENS explores the experience of the inhabitants of a city informed by their personal attachment to a place and its intellectual and cultural heritage. The project consists of a text-based, collaborative art work that will be translated into both an online interactive structure and a gallery-based exhibition with building projections, accompanied by artists’ film screenings and a symposium.Participants: Nick-e Melville / Gerry Smith / Mirja Koponen / Dane Sutherland / Stephen Goodall / AnneLaure Coxam / Greg Thomas Catherine Sargeant / Sophia Lycouris / Colin Herd/Iain Morrison / Ryan Van Winkle / Penny Travlou Lila Matsumoto / Evangelia Ledaki / Catriona Gallagher / Jack Burton / Kika Kyriakakou / Nikos Mantzios / Augustus Veinoglou / Becky Campbell / Campus Novel group / Ateneo / Kostas Chryssogelos / Maria VeinoglouTranslations: Matthew Carey Simos / Konstantinos Chryssogelos / Eleni KontesidouArtist films: David Trullo / Sam Meech / Eleni Odysseos / Lani Asuncion / Alper Tunga Ince / Andrea Eis
