epitelesis - Performance Art Foundation is an artistic platform co-founded in 2013 by visuals artists PASHIAS and Demosthenis Agrafiotis, based in Athens - Greece. Aiming at the concentration and dissemination of artists' work in the field of performance art, “epitelesis” was set up as an organic structure including individuals, local artists, cultural spaces and institutions according to its current project at hand. At the same time, “epitelesis” was actively involved in developing ties with partners on an international level, in order to create a supportive structure for the execution of events, the documentation of cultural activities and the promotion of opportunities for performance artists. Project activities mainly took place in the following four directions:
PERFORMANCE SERIES / Curating performance series alongside cultural practitioners, actively connecting their work with the public, the urban setting and the current sociocultural context
EDUCATION / Setting up educational programs and studies, focusing on the development of performance art practices by bringing together local and international artists
EXHIBITIONS / Researching diverse exhibitory formats for performance art, beyond the 'live' dimension, by exploring its relation to other artistic practices, such as photography or installation
EPITELESIS PRESENTS... / Presenting renowned artists from abroad, focusing on their practice through the production of live performances, public performances, video screenings and lectures
