Christos Giannopoulos

Christos Giannopoulos made two large works in 2006: a painting called History of the Siege of Lisbon and a metal sculpture titled Rebetiko. Both pieces sit in the same year, so you can compare how one artist handled two different materials. The painting shows scenes from a 14th-century siege, while the metalwork echoes the sound and feeling of a Greek musical style. Next, tap Rebetiko to hear how a sculpture can “sing” without strings.
