Greece’s landmark cultural festival has a new art director, Jan Fabre, who is dedicating his first programme to works from his homeland Belgian. We want to know what Greek artists make of Fabre’s approach. Do you welcome the changes? Or do you feel that Greek artists have been sidelined?
In addition to curating a line-up about the “Belgian spirit”, the multidisciplinary artist has also changed the festival’s name to the International Athens and Epidaurus Festival (formally known as the Athens and Epidaurus Festival). According to Kathimerini newspaper, 80% of this year’s festival will be made up of Belgium productions.
