Catalogue Note
Executed in 1999, this work is a model for a large work in the central metro station at Syntagma Square in Athens. This is the first time one of the four smaller-scale models of this composition appears at auction.
Created in a staggering brief period of one month, the Syntagma Aithrio installed in the metro in Athens dominates this busy interchange, yet blends seamlessly into its surroundings.
