The Logos / Λογότυπα exhibition featuring 40 Greek Australian artists officially opened on Friday, September 20 at the Hazelhurst Arts Centre in Gymea, Sydney.

Crossing six decades from the 1960s to the 2020s, the exhibition embraces Hellenism and the idea of permanency as an illusion in Australian art and culture.

For many of the exhibiting artists, Logos / Λογότυπα is the first time their works will be positioned in a Greek context.

Many of the artists were present at the launch night on Friday along with their family and friends. Official proceedings included speeches by parish priest at Saint Stylianos Gymea, Father Constantine Varipatis, curator Mr Gouriotis, and a representative from the Hazelhurst Arts Centre. Member for Miranda, Eleni Petinos MP was also present.
