“This exhibition is a minimal tribute on behalf of the Municipal Art Gallery of Chania in memory of the artist, both for his artistic work and for his contribution to the education and aesthetic perception of our youth.
Being certain that this exhibition will also provide plenty food for thought, we invite all lovers of art to enjoy it”.
Vice Mayor (Dep. of Culture) G. GIANNAKAKIS:
“The careful study and observation of the natural landscape, combined with an in-depth knowledge of the elements of everyday life and the matters surrounding us, were his priority and, as one could also say, Nikos Georgopoulos’ special talent.
I would like to thank the art historian, Vasso Petroulaki, for curating the exhibition and the painter’s wife, Pagona Xenaki, painter, for kindly donating the works to the exhibition.
I invite the art-loving citizens and guests to pay a visit and enjoy this important exhibition, hosted at our Municipal Art Gallery”.
