Stelios Karamanolis, Tula Plumi

Stelios Karamanolis – An artist without a concept is like a traveler without a road map
The exhibition consists of oil paintings depicting people in natural sceneries and intents to reveal vague narratives through an ambiguous storytelling. Excursions in forests, gatherings around the fire, matches hanging out with people and bizarre wooden horses compose the pieces of a story which takes place in the woods. The overall exhibition focuses on matters of orientation; people are going somewhere, getting lost or trying to find their way. Travelers without road maps are like artists without concepts, wandering around and exploring new places.

Tula Plumi - 8
The show comprises works that deal primarily with matters of surface and facade and aims to display an equilibristic environment of volumes and shapes, linear and cyclical structures. Linear outlines of cotton strings are combined with colored box shaped facades in a defined context on the wall surface. Another installation of ?shaped steel elements is also organized on the wall. Assemblages of cylinders are placed on the floor forming larger compositions while other painted steel elements are combined with chair cushions bearing industrial patterns and designs. Thus, issues of utility and function interplay with matters of form and color and manufactured patterns from the domestic domain merge with handmade objects. The title of the exhibition 8 aims to draw attention to the cyclical formation of the number and to highlight formalistic depiction over meaning and symbolism.
