Description

Loukia & Michael Zampelas Art Museum is screening GREEN FUSE FILMS' award–winning documentary Between the Folds which chronicles the stories of ten fine artists and intrepid theoretical scientists who have abandoned careers and scoffed at hard–earned graduate degrees—all to forge unconventional lives as modern–day paperfolders.

As they converge on the unlikely medium of origami, these artists and scientists reinterpret the world in paper, and bring forth a bold mix of sensibilities towards art, expressiveness, creativity and meaning. And, together these offbeat and provocative minds demonstrate the innumerable ways that art and science come to bear as we struggle to understand and honor the world around us—as artists, scientists, creators, collaborators, preservers, and simply curious beings.

The screening will take place at Loukia & Michael Zampelas Art Museum at Kaimakli, on Friday, 10th of May 2013 at 19:30.

Origami artist Mr. Dimmis Petrides will be with us to talk about the world of origami through his experiences and present part of his work.

Mr. Dimmis Petrides will be giving origami classes at Loukia & Michael Zampelas Art Museum for adults and children.
