INAUGURATION OF WOR(TH)SHIP EXHIBITION - BENAKI MUSEUM | 19.11.2015 | GOLDEN SPONSOR: ONASSIS FOUNDATION

“Especially in times, like the present ones, where there is a widespread suspicion for the foreigner, for the “other” person, we ought to underline that the blending, the mix, the coexistence is the only way for democratic and open societies.  Because ultimately, each one of us may have his own place and his own way of worship, yet, we all live together in one city, in common ground”.

With these words, among others, Dr. Anthony Papadimitriou, President of the Onassis Foundation, conveyed the message of support from Onassis Foundation for the Wor(th)ship Exhibition, which was inaugurated on Thursday, November 19, at the Benaki Museum, through an impressive event.Religious faith, expressed in Athens inside basements and flats, apartment buildings and car parking-lots, in sport courts and open-air venues, from people of different religions and origins, is recorded through Tassos Vrettos’ lens and is presented in a rare photography research-exhibition, which will run till January 10, 2016.  Onassis Foundation is the Golden Sponsor.
