Rethymno invites you to a thought-provoking art exhibition, "1824-2024: 200 Years Later... Individual Claims - Social Changes," honoring the 200th anniversary of the Four New Martyrs of Rethymno.
This captivating showcase, presented by the Pancretan Association of Neorion Art,
September 4-9 will be held in the Artillery Hall at Fortetssa.

 

Visit the exhibition of 17 artists who pay tribute to the saints while exploring the ongoing struggle for freedom, justice, and individual identity. Through diverse artworks, you'll witness the profound social transformations that have shaped our world over the past two centuries.

As you wander through the exhibition, you'll encounter a variety of artistic styles and media. This diversity mirrors the complexity of contemporary Greek society - a seemingly solid structure that conceals remarkable contrasts, inequalities, and evolutionary changes.

The artworks on display serve as windows into Greece's historical upheavals. They remind us that history is not a fixed reality but a living, breathing entity. These pieces reflect the confused and fractured lines of progress, shaped by the historical processes they depict.

Don't miss this unique opportunity to explore the intersection of art, history, and social change.

The Free of Entrance exhibition offers a fresh perspective on our collective past and present, encouraging reflection on the journey from 1824 to 2024.

 


City of Rethymno

You are invited to travel to areas, which are perhaps still unknown to the majority, and which are sometimes remote, but always magical and magnificent throughout the seasons. We recommend our visitors to see our picturesque villages through the eyes of the soul, try the Cretan cuisine, our wine and “tsikoudia”, participate in our revelries and festivities, but most importantly get to know our soul, our hospitality, the safe, untouched interior of the region, the other Rethymno.
