In the centre of the city of Athens, in its very core, there is a very special place where i have the pleasure to work. It is the ArtWall project space, an art space based on the floor of Fresh Hotel, on Sofokleous str.
ArtWall is a newbie and as such has a very vivid temperament. An art space, where exhibition are changing every month, music is played live from musicians and performances are held, all these curated by Fotini Karipi.
The ArtWall has a very close relationship with the outside environment, considering it is placed on the floor level and is covered by a huge glass window. This is a benefit, because the art is forced to extrovert and all things happening inside can be seen from the outside.
ArtWall is about modern art. A type of art you can relate and get involved immediately. As i like to believe, art is for everyone and in The ArtWall this is everyday reality. Even a person passing by can get a glimps of art which can trigger a love for art.
This spot can offer you an additional aspect of the city. We talked about the floor level and the immediacy of the road but within the same building on the 9th floor we can talk about the perpective of the city. Getting on the Fresh Hotel tarace is a secret i often keep even from my friends.
One of the best spots of the city, recently explored, where i can observe the whole city, the beautiful and the ugly. A calm place where i can enjoy a coffee or a drink and enjoy the orange summer sunsets of Athens.
Open from Tuesday to Friday 4pm-9pm, Saturday 12pm-4pm.
