9 jours des Affaires en cours
Θοδωρής Προδρομίδης & Πέτρος Νικόλτσος
Διάρκεια: 20 Οκτωβρίου – 20 Νοεμβρίου
(Εγκαίνια: Πέμπτη, 20 Οκτωβρίου στις 21:00)
Ανοιχτά καθημερινά 12:00 – 00:00
Ο Θοδωρής Προδρομίδης και ο Πέτρος Νικόλτσος καταγράφουν το τοπίο της Αθήνας, δημιουργώντας ένα προσωρινό αρχείο και παρουσιάζοντας το ως μιά αφήγηση μέσω πολλαπλών προβολών στο project space του six d.o.g.s.
Η αφήγηση αυτή, χρησιμοποιεί τοσο την αρχιτεκτονική οσο και την εγγενή επιτελεστικότητα των καταστάσεων που συναντά ένας περιπατητής της πόλης αυτής, και επιχειρεί να δημιουργήσει ένα σενάριο επιστημονικής φαντασίας, βασισμενο πάνω στη σχέση του μοντέρνου και του προσωρινού. Η δομή αυτής της αφήγησης καλεί τον θεατή να βρεθεί ανασταλμένος μεταξύ της ιστορίας και της πληροφορίας.

Theo Prodromidis & Peter Nikoltsos
20 October - 20 November 2011
(Private View: Thursday, 20 October at 21:00)
Opening hours, everyday 12:00 – 00:00
Theo Prodromidis and Peter Nikoltsos document the landscape of the city of Athens producing a temporal archive and presenting it as a narrative through multiple projections at the project space of six d.o.g.s.
This narrative utilises both architecture and the inherent performativity of the situations one can stumble upon in this city.
It attempts to produce a pseudo science fiction scenario based on the relationship between
the modernity and the contemporaneity of Athens.
The structure of this narrative invites the viewer to be suspended in the space between history and information.

Invitation to A Serenade (From a Gallery to a Street, Rebecca Camhi, Athens) 3rd part
Theo Prodromidis,
Invitation to A Serenade (From a Gallery to a Street, Rebecca Camhi, Athens)
2011, performance, duration variable.
The invitation to athens-based bands to perform a disruption of the everyday aesthetic experience of this street in Kerameikos, on the facarde of a neoclassical house turned into a gallery, introduces an action bound with Mediterranean traditions and mythical love stories, that of the serenade, but reversed in its dynamic, from the balcony to the street.
For the third act act, on 08/10 Jeremy Irons (members of Medusas and Another Little Girl Under The Sea) camped in the gallery and garaged out a beautiful psychedelic autumnal serenade under the first rain drops of a Fall for Athens.

For the second act, on 30/09 Giannis from Bazooka and friends performed an hour of a serenade of noise and amplified love callings that made the gallery into a huge speaker and the street to warp around their calling.
