"The source of the art does not lay in the subjective and the creative procedure
as the abstract expressionists used to state, but in everyday natural environment,
and the aim is to erase the distinction between art and environment, in the conciousness
of the arists, who perceives everythings as a whole."

The exhibition that will take place in the booze cooperativa creative space evolves
around the creation of in citu video applications/installations, the central theme
of which is people and the contemporary urban environment. The existence in such an
environment of communication or more over the lack of it, the differences, the similarities,
the reasons that divide or unite people. On the occasion of the amalgam of cultures,
ethnicities, religions for an amalgam of civilizations in a space where many different
people are driven due to its complexity and its location. Furthermore, it was the reason for
which it was selected for such an exhibition. A metropolitan space, which will host
SIX installations materialized in situ and others adjusted to this particular space.
The exhibition will be in the basement, the ground floor, the first floor and the
