Entitled “My Own Iliad”, created by the Cypriot painter George Koumouros and dedicated to Homer’s Iliad is the new exhibition hosted at the Athens International Airport in cooperation with “ANAPLOUS-Cultural & Educational Projects”.
 
Following its journey from the Archaeological Museum of Delphi, to the Archaeological Museum of Igoumenitsa, “My own Iliad”‘s next stop at the Athens International Airport includes photographic reproductions of 10 out of the 35 sketches with pencil on paper created by George Koumouros in 2008 in Cyprus and the United Kingdom; the drawings enter into dialogue with an equal number of episodes from Homer’s Iliad.
 
The aim of these activities is to promote the Hellenic culture and civilization to the visitors travelling to Athens and to offer them the possibility to, partly, experience these values upon their arrival and before their departure from the city.
 
The duration of the exhibition“My own Iliad” is from 20.11.2013 till 31.3.2014 and is open on a 24hour basis daily at the “Art&Culture” area at the Arrivals’ Level of the MTB (All Users’ Area).
