The project Culture Industry, Folklore and Clichés at VOX invites 30 international artists from Greece and Eastern Europe to explore the way in which the concepts of Folklore and Clichés interact and suggest, apart from common experiences and thoughts of a specific geographic area, new meanings and ideas.

The works are placed throughout the premises of VOX building, one of the most popular ‘bouzoukia’ venues of the city. The building, landmark of the Athenian night life, without changing character, temporarily becomes a container that interacts with its content, with the art works that imply new narrations that come out of the negotiation with familiar circumstances.

Contributing artists: Azra Akšamija, Lydia Andrioti - Light Tream, Georgia Chatzivasileiadi, Antonakis Christodoulou, Evdokia Chrysovergi, Panayiotis Delilabros ,Tomáš Džadoň, Dora Economou, Maria Georgoula, Dimitra Giannakakou – Razelou, Dzenana Hozic, Gülsün Karamustafa, Damijan & Katarina Toman Kracina, Dimitris Kousoulas, Margarita Myrogianni, Catalina Nicolescu, Mustafa Pancar, Dimitris Papadatos, Theo Prodromidis, Kolja Saksida, Despina Stokou, Yorgos Taxiarchopoulos, Giorgos Tourlas, Maria Varela, Roula Vidali, Kārlis Vītols, Stamatis Zervas and the Campana Workshop in Athens
