STAVRONIKITA PROJECT

In search of the right topic for an underwater exhibition on SS Stavronikita, the Viennese artist determined that this European era, this age of decadence with all its intoxicating extravagance, its vanity and disdain would sign-on to the sunken Greek freighter. But did he really determine it? Was the Stavronikita not rather urging him to do so? The wreck full of lavish life demanded a match as overflowing and abundant as Rococo, its ideal equivalent. Enjoy one of the most flashing and flamboyant epochs of European style and cultural history in the midst of scenery in which nature displays all of its own abundance and prodigality.
