Maria Genitsariou, born in 1966 in Piraeus, is a visual artist and calligrapher with a focus on the evolution of Greek calligraphy. Dedicated to art from her youth, she studied graphic arts and painting, always seeking new expressive possibilities through writing. In 1993, she discovered Greek calligraphy and decided to study it at the Department of Palaeography of MIET (National Bank of Greece Cultural Foundation) under Professor Agamemnon Tselikas. Her goal is to collect and study Greek fonts and to reproduce the writing and illustration tools used. Using writing as her main artistic medium, she creates works that incorporate various fonts, transforming them into art.She has exhibited her work in numerous exhibitions and teaches calligraphy in seminars, while she has also served as a Calligraphy Instructor at the Athens School of Fine Arts (ASFA). Her works are held in private collections and collections of international institutions both within and outside Greece, including museums in Vienna and the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Constantinople. Believing in the boundless possibilities of calligraphy, she participates in programs promoting it in Greece and abroad and has collaborated with the ARC – Art Revisited Collective since June 2021.
