A propos de cet article

Melbourne : Scanlan Theodore, 2016. Quarto, lettered cloth, pp. 32, foreword by John Tatoulis, essay by Peter Craven, photographic plates by Bill Henson. Printed in a limited edition of 300 copies.

It is housed permanently at the Hellenic Museum. The contemporary works in Oneiroi incorporate five historical objects from the Benaki Museum collection, on display in the exhibition Gods, Myths & Mortals; including a 3500-year-old gold cup, an Ottoman period necklace and the knife which once belonged to a revolutionary leader. The objects reflect the rich and varied nature of Greek history and the ways in which Greece has evolved through the ages. ?Despite spanning millennia, the Benaki treasures included within each of the portraits still appear breathtakingly modern. They are unique pieces individually created by artists and craftspeople whose aesthetics and skill are testament to a cultures dedication to design innovation. ?Henson?s technical and aesthetic approach to his work, his structure, composition and his use of light and shadow add an ethereal quality to the works. His invocation of the Oneiroi, the spirts of dreams, as elusive as the shadows of memory which make up the past, transform the objects from static artefacts, to objects alive with purpose. - Hellenic Museum.…
