The Thessaloniki Museum of Photography organizes an International Photography Festival (the PhotoBiennale) every two years, which is an evolution of an annual photography festival (entitled Photosynkyria) which has been running for twenty years.

Exhibition: “Nausica Pastra 1921-2011. Retrospective Exhibition: the Drawings, the Sculptures and the Theoretical Texts”.

The Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art is participating in “The Desire for Freedom. Art in Europe since 1945”, the 30th exhibition of the Council of Europe, with the parallel emblematic exhibition “Art in Europe since 1945: Beyond boundaries”, which includes more than 200 works of art from renowned Greek and foreign artists. The exhibition is under the auspices of the Hellenic Presidency of the Council of the European Union and will run from February 8th until May 4th 2014.

An exhibition that celebrates the work and the personalities of the two great composers, R. Wagner and G.Verdi, two hundred years after their birthday.

After the exhibition ‘Places of Memory – Fields of Vision’, that took place at the Contemporary Art Center in 2012, this is a return to the subject of memory, emphasizing not the city as a mnemonic space, but the human body.
