New Old
project “Spirits of Greek Mythology” The rich imagery, themes, dynamism
and historical intricacies of Greek mythology have always provided much
fertile inspiration for the creation of masterpieces in all spheres of
art. Narratives of the life of the Gods, their strength and power still
offer inspiration to artists today. Our exhibition presents our
perception of this rich ancient Greek epos. By means of painting and
photography we would like to demonstrate the eroticism, beauty and
finesse of the life, culture and spirit of the ancient Greeks. We would
like to present every visitor with the Beauty of Aphrodite, Poetry of
Apollo, Strength of Athena and the Wisdom of Zeus. Through our art we
hope to inspire you to momentarily escape from the stressful routine of
everyday-life into a world of romanticism, eroticism and beauty.
Nyx
(Ancient Greek: Νύξ, "night") – Nox in Latin translation – is the Greek
goddess (or personification) of the night. A shadowy figure, Nyx stood
at or near the beginning of creation, and was the mother of other
personified gods such as Hypnos (Sleep) and Thánatos (Death). Her
appearances in mythology are sparse, but reveal her as a figure of
exceptional power and beauty. She is found in the shadows of the world
and only ever seen in glimpses
