Christakis Tassos

After completing his studies at the Athens School of Fine Arts (1967 – 1972), he completed post-graduate studies at Boston University (1979 – 1982). During 1983 – 1991, he taught at the 4th Painting Workshop at the Athens School of Fine Arts. His work has been presented in group exhibitions (Zoumboulakis 1987, Lindblom, Helsinki 1990, Ileana Tounta 1991, 1995) and group exhibitions.

In his work, consisting of painting, constructions, environments and using materials such as coal, burnt wood or paper, and soil, the figuration is treated as a “conceptual” idea, expressing the artist’s anxiety in the face of the world and his future (“Mountains series”, “Trees series”).
