Clothing, make-up, and the style of their hair characterize them as modern people from the twenty-first century. Yet in many of his paintings the artist captures these figures in groups that evoke historical, mythological, or religious themes already familiar to the viewer. \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eSoika and Eva,\u003c\/I\u003e for instance, are in the pose of a pietà, while \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eDancers\u003c\/I\u003e recalls Leonardo da Vinci’s \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eLast Supper.\u003c\/I\u003e The large-format painting \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eThe Night \u003c\/I\u003eis reminiscent of Ferdinand Hodler’s painting of the same name. Tzamouranis uses art history as a field of inspiration. He also employs familiar imagery to achieve a sense of recognition in the viewer, making deliberate use of this effect, playing with associations and developing them into his world of images.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-language: DE\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-language: DE\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003eExhibition schedule: Galerie Miro, Prague, November 7–Early December 2012 | Kunsthalle Dominikanerkirche, Osnabrück, December 16, 2012–Late February 2013 | Museum Frissiras, Athens, September 30, 2013–Early December 2013\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45526204809480,"sku":"9783775735025","price":39.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775735025_5d73484e-baba-4a6e-a2e4-ab07e98e595e.jpg?v=1744056965","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/17262-dimitris-tzamouranis","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
