On the Silver Couch: Dimitra and Sofia Vamiali

 

Artists and gallerists Dimitra and Sofia Vamiali

What can keep in Athens  an artist and a gallerist nowdays;
The prospect of forming a new way of creating and managing art. And so, our relocation in another country is postponed at the moment.

What was the most interesting thing you've heard lately?
The 3 rules of mountaineering: It is always farther than it seems, always higher than it seems and always harder than it looks.

On the Silver Couch: Cibelle

Artist Cibelle

Who is your hero?

People who just really living out their personal truth and people who say "This is who I am!"

What do you imagine doing in 30 years from now?

I can see my hair as Silver fox with really long white hair and probably dressed in white and spending time on the beach

Greek and Modern

Taking photos with Rallou

and Andreas,

of one of the best examples of modern greek architecture,

designed by Takis Zenetos.

In the most politically charged area this building stands in a splendid isolation

sometimes overlooked by passers-by and sometimes contemplated by others.

Do you remember "R e m e m b e r "?

I should not stick so much in the eighties but I cannot leave unmentioned about my 2006 fashion store re-discovery. In the Athens of the 80's punks and rock fans used to buy their clothes from Remember. I still remember my mom's nod of disapproval when I bought my first Cure pins in the summer of 1989. Remember still operates in Plaka with the most outstanding leftovers from this era. Almost a year ago I was walking in Plaka and I was very happy to discover that I could find shoes and clothes from the upcoming Dior Homme, Balenciaga, Bernard Wilhelm and Rick Owens catwalks but 20 times cheaper and more original. The hyper-social owner Dimitris Tsouanatos is really the athenian encyclopedia of the 80's so if you still think that Athens sucks on shopping, Remember to visit Remember!
