The
texts published in this volume were written and read at the presentation
of the book Manolis Andronikos. Texts on Art, which took place at the Macedonian
Museum of Contemporary Art, Thessaloniki, on April 26, 2002.
The
book Manolis Andronikos. Texts on Art, edited by Angeliki Sachini, was
the first of the Art Library series with which the Association of Greek
Art Critics aims to preserve and promote the critical work of distinguished
members of the Greek intellectual community.
The
presentation of the book was organized jointly by the Macedonian Museum
of Contemporary Art and the Association of Greek Art Critics.
The
Association of Greek Art Critics wishes to thank the Macedonian Museum
of Contemporary Art for its valuable contribution to this event which gave
the opportunity for a new reading and reappraisal of the art-critical work
of Andronikos, in the place where his activities were instrumental in reviving
the art scene — Thessaloniki.
Our
sincere thanks to the authors and speakers whose contributions have provided,
through this volume, an exquisite specimen of intellectual discourse between
past and present.
