Art Curator Paris Kapralos<\/a><\/strong>, in collaboration with 32 visual artists from Greece and abroad, presents the exhibition \u201cShelter\u201d in support of shelters for abused women operated by the Greek Women\u2019s Network of Europe<\/b>.<\/p>

Within the framework of the exhibition, the participating artists offer their works without financial compensation, so that all proceeds will be allocated to support the operation of shelters for abused women. Visitors to the exhibition may acquire works, some valued at several thousand euros, by submitting an offer for the amount they wish to contribute, with a minimum price of 100 euros.<\/p>

Following the opening, the exhibition will remain open to visitors<\/strong> at the Athens art gallery on Friday 3 April, 11:00 \u2013 18:00<\/strong> and Saturday 4 April, 11:00 \u2013 15:00<\/strong>, during which time interested parties may continue to submit their offers.<\/p>

In addition to visitors attending the physical exhibition in Athens, those who wish to participate remotely may also submit offers through the ARTgrID platform. From 29 March, prior to the opening of the physical exhibition, all works are presented here on this website, where interested parties may begin submitting offers for the works they are interested in, starting from the minimum price of 100 euros and offering any amount they wish.<\/p>

At the conclusion of the process, each work will be awarded to the highest bidder. All proceeds from the sale of the works will be allocated to support the uninterrupted operation of the shelters for abused women maintained by the Greek Women\u2019s Network of Europe.<\/p>

The present online edition of the exhibition will open for offers on Sunday 29 March and will remain available until Saturday 4 April at 22:00.<\/strong><\/p>

Curator Paris Kapralos notes on the exhibition<\/strong>: “The exhibition \u201cShelter\u201d brings together works by artists from Greece and abroad around the concepts of protection, care, and collective responsibility. At a time when support structures for abused women face serious challenges in maintaining their operation, art is activated as a field of solidarity and social response. The works presented in the exhibition function as gestures of support. Through their availability to the public, artistic creation becomes a tangible contribution to sustaining spaces of safety for women at risk. Shelter here is understood as both a physical place and a symbolic concept that connects art with protection, solidarity, and the possibility of a new beginning.<\/i>“<\/p>

This initiative aims to engage the art audience around a direct and meaningful social cause. Through the participation of artists, visitors, and supporters, the exhibition \u201cShelter\u201d seeks to transform the experience of art into an act of solidarity and active support for women who need a safe environment for protection and rebuilding their lives.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
