CURATOR’S TOUR | DREAM ON

Join Dimitris Paleocrassas, curator of Dream On for a tour of NEON’s exhibition at the former Public Tobacco Factory.

Art historian and consultant of the D.Daskalopoulos Collection, Dimitris Paleocrassas will give visitors an in-depth understanding of the themes and ideas addressed in the exhibition highlighting the artists and works included.

Dream On, organised and presented by NEON in collaboration with the Hellenic Parliament, brings together 18 large-scale installations from the D.Daskalopoulos Collection by Greek and international artists, as well as a newly commissioned work, and 20 drawings. The exhibition follows the announcement of the D.Daskalopoulos Collection Gift, presenting some of the most important works of the Collection which will then be donated to 4 museums in 3 countries over 2 continents (EMST, Tate, and jointly to the Guggenheim and MCA Chicago). This is the first time that a crucial mass of the large-scale works of the D.Daskalopoulos Collection will be exhibited in Greece, gathered in the open, freely accessible space of the former Public Tobacco Factory.
