THEATER
Rohtko: The Most Famous Fraud Case in Art History Goes to the Roof, by Lukasz Twarkowski
Whoever sees it, will not forget it. Like Rothko’s paintings. A contemporary Polish director, Łukasz Twarkowski, who is beginning to conquer Europe with his performances, with a long collaboration with the iconic Polish director Krystian Lupa, is introduced to the Greek audience on the Main Stage of the Roof with Rohtko. A monumental spectacle-experience, on the border of theatre, cinema and video art, an iconoclastic show-dive into the haven of contemporary art, with the expressionist Mark Rothko at the center.
And if you noticed the anagram in the title of the show and Rothko’s name, this is not a mistake, but a deliberate falsification by the creators of the work, since at the heart of the work is a true story of forgery of a work of art: a few years ago a painting by pioneering abstract expressionist painter Mark Rothko sold for an astronomical $8.5 million. Except, as it turned out, the painting was fake. One of the biggest fraud scandals in the history of modern art!

Faces, directed by Efi Meravoglou at Technohoros Ergotaxion
THE Efi Meravoglou directs the show “Faces”, which is staged at Technohoros Ergotaxion. Space and time do not exist. Personalities who have been and are now emerge from the frozen time capsule and place us in a moment of theirs. A project in which the viewer will watch and have the opportunity to get to know an aspect of each character up close. Biographical data, psychosynthesis, action, reactions, way of thinking are the basic core of the revival-representation of these personalities. Richard III, Irene Pappa, Frida Kahlo, Joan of Arc, Anna Maniani, and a well-known serial killer are the faces that will take us back in time. An opportunity to live with them for a moment, to hear a thought, to see them.
Every Thursday at 21:15
€10 (regular) | €7 (reduced)
Technochoros Ergotaxion, Diogenous 1, Agios Dimitrios
MUSIC
Athens Philharmonic Orchestra: Shostakovich’s “3rd Symphony” in First All-Hellenic performance at Olympia Theater
THE Athens Philharmonic Orchestra presents the “3rd Symphony (of May Day)” by Dmitri Shostakovich in the first pan-Hellenic performance at the Olympia Municipal Music Theater Maria Kallas. The work was first performed by the Philharmonic Orchestra and the Academic Choir in Leningrad, on the anniversary of Lenin’s death. The poetry in the Symphony’s Finale is by Semyon Kirsanov. The spirit that pervades the entire work perfectly reflects the youthful optimism of the Soviet 1920s. The concert program is completed by Arthur Honegger’s “Summer Shepherd” and three short lyric cycles of Greek songs for voice and orchestra by Maurice Ravel, Antonin Dvořák and Konstantinou Sfakianakis, with soloist Artemis Bogri.
