BIO

Change lies at the heart of Euripides Altintzoglou's artistic practice, serving as both a subject and a force that continually reshapes the world we inhabit. Euripides delves beyond the visible expressions of political discourse, exploring the nuanced and often unacknowledged gestures of resistance and resilience that permeate everyday life.

 

In a world increasingly defined by division and discord, his work positions art as a powerful tool for fostering understanding and bridging divides. Through objects, videos, images, and installations, Euripides harnesses the iconic and transformative potential of imagery, using it as a catalyst to provoke reflection and engage with the pressing concerns of our time.

 

His work has been exhibited internationally in both private and public galleries, as well as in major international exhibitions. Noteworthy theoretical contributions include his monograph Portraiture and Critical Reflections on Being (Routledge, New York, 2018) and the co-edited essay collection Revolt and Revolution: The Protester in the 21st Century (with Martin Fredriksson, Inter-Disciplinary Press, Oxford, 2016).
