MADE IN ATHENS: Reader I

























[CLICK ON THE IMAGE TO VIEW THE DOCUMENT]

MADE IN ATHENS: READER I is an ‘messy’ accumulation of papers, articles and re- ports that set to function both as an informative docu- ment for – and as a question towards the current socio-political and cultural nar- ratives produced in Athens (and in Greece in general). 
Spanning from 2013 till now, the texts aim to build a back- drop for Kuvataideakatamia’s visit to Athens (late February 2017). 
They address issues of media representation, the persecution on ‘ anomie’, of cur- rent artistic production and the implication of Documenta 14 – along with matters of migration, the refugee crisis and the rise of fascism. 
They are further examined through a series of audiovisual links (lectures, documentaries) listed on the side. 
Their reference to names, events and locations are meant to be investigated by the group and spark discus- sion on how to approach our visit to the Greek capital. 


Enjoy....
