Galata Municipal School

Open School Library / 4th floor

 

A small sample of the stones painted during his period of exile in Gyaros and Leros by one of the leading Greek poets 

20th century, Yannis Ritsos, is going to be exhibited at the Open Library of the Galata Urban School under the title "Only the stones remained."

The three stones on display, in contrast to the poet's personal and political stance on the social injustices, exiles and poverty that his poems deal with, 

they invite visitors to feel the essence of life and the roots of human existence. 

 

The exhibition "Only the stones remained" which will take place in the Open Library of the fourth floor of the Galata Municipal School, between May 26 - June 24, 2017, 

readings of the artist's poems will also be framed at the same time.
