KAPPATOS GALLERY, Athen

‘beside’
zinc paint

1
Steffi Jüngling and Adonis Pittas were invited by the curator Christina Petrinou to exhibit at the opening of the new Kappatos Gallery in Athens. The artists decided to work site-specific and their pieces reacted to each other.

2
Steffi Jüngling realised a window piece, drawing waves on the window of the gallery with ordinary zinc paint as it is used to cover the windows of shops to block the view during refurbishment.

3
After Steffi Jünglings piece was finished the gallerist decided that he did not want the piece in his gallery; he ordered someone to take the window piece down.

4
Adonis Pittas finished his drawing of the windows with smoke.

5
During the opening of the exhibition Adonis Pittas, Steffi Jüngling and Christina Petrinou took down the drawing and the gallery space returned to its original state.
