MOMus - [DAY 21] Kosmas Xenakis, “The piano”, 1948

MOMus, still socially active and in the present condition, recommends selected works exclusively from its collections and exhibitions in its online program "MOMus Resilience Project". At the same time, MOMus wants to be closer to the people who work, create, express themselves through their homes, and recommends aspects of "home", that is home life, as artists have perceived it to be in tempore non suspecto.

[DAY 21] Kosmas Xenakis, “The piano”, 1948

Still a student at the National Technical University of Athens, but having already apprenticed with Tsarouchis (the year he took part in the first post-war Panhellenic Exhibition and shortly before starting his great career in architecture), Kosmas Xenakis continues to be fascinated by music and interior of the house: not only for the architecture of the home space, but for the sound of the piano that fills the architectural space and changes the emotional landscape of the times and the figures that look towards us. [Kosmas Xenakis, “The piano”, 1948, tempera on fabric, 958,8x73,9 cm, Donation of Alexander and Dorothy Xydis to MMCA, MOMus-Museum of Contemporary Art-Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art and State Museum of Contemporary Art Collections]
