Paky Vlassopoulou
Paky Vlassopoulou is a visual artist based in Athens, working mainly with sculpture. Her practice is informed by the dialectics of traditional sculpture making in relation to spatial issues, objecthood, functionality, and bodily experiences. She is concerned with themes that deal with knowledge production, history, and ruins, while in recent years her works revolve around the concepts of confinement, care, and hospitality. She has received the ARTWORKS Artists Fellowship by Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) and in 2019 she was selected for a residency at the International Studio & Curatorial Program (ISCP) in New York City. Her work has been presented in solo projects in Greece and abroad, and has been included in group exhibitions such as the 8th Thessaloniki Biennale; “Weather Engines” by Onassis Stegi; “The Equilibrists” by the New Museum and the DESTE Foundation, in collaboration with the Benaki Museum; “New Art from Greece” by the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; and “A Thousand Doors” by NEON Foundation and The Whitechapel Gallery. In 2012, together with artists Chrysanthi Koumianaki and Kosmas Nikolaou, she co-founded 3 137, an artist-run space operating in Athens.
