space52 - Larnakos 28

space52 is a contemporary artist-run space founded in 2017 by the artist Dionisis Christofilogiannis. We aim to embrace and support the practices of artists through an annual program of art exhibitions, publications, screenings, artist workshops and artist residencies. We work with a growing network of artists, guest curators and partnering institutions on long term collaborative programs with a focus on new ways of experiencing and producing contemporary art.

Through our online journal One After Another we publish original research and art criticism in the form of reviews, interviews, and essays on local and international artists and exhibitions.

Founder and Director
Dionisis Christofilogiannis is a multidisciplinary artist based in Athens and a Professor of Fine Art at the American College of Greece. Recent exhibitions include EMST - National Museum of Contemporary Art Greece, MOMus Thessaloniki, and Biennale 6: Thessaloniki. Dionisis’ latest project is called MOMAFAD (Museum of Modern Art For a Day) presented as part of the exhibition “SunShip: The Arc That Makes The Flood Possible”, Arts Letters & Numbers at the CITYX Venice Italian Virtual Pavilion of the 17th Venice Biennale of Architecture. The inauguration of MOMAFAD with the presentation of the documentary film and the open discussion took place at EMST – Museum of Contemporary Art (link) in Athens on November 18, 2021. MOMAFAD features the works of 26 contemporary artists working in Greece in Athens’s former Hellinikon International Airport for the duration of a day. Taking over the iconic structure designed in 1968 by the pre-eminent Finish architect Eero Saarinen, MOMAFAD, a civic intervention, and a temporary institution, aims to reimagine the present and future of Hellinikon at a critical moment in its history.
