'Culture Industry, Folklore and Clichés' at VOX

The project "Culture Industry, Folklore and Clichés" at VOX invites 30 international artists from Greece and Eastern Europe to explore the ways in which the concepts of folklore and clichés interact and suggest new meanings and ideas, separate from the common experiences and thoughts of a specific geographic area. It will take place at VOX in Athens from 12 June to 10 July.

The works are placed throughout the VOX building, one of the most popular "bouzoukia" venues in the city. The building, a landmark of Athenian nightlife, retains its character while temporarily becoming a container that interacts with its content, with the art works that imply new narrations that result from negotiation with familiar circumstances.
