Kostas Ordolis

Shapes and shadows from the theatre​


Kostas Ordolis’ theatre-oriented photographs are imbued with the poetic dimension of his chosen medium.


Quoting Dimitris Dimitriadis. “In the beginning, therefore, there was shadow: this is the starting point of Kostas Ordolis’ pictorial world”.


If theatre actuality consists of glamour and poses struck in the limelight, Ordolis’ gaze transcends the window-dressing and sensationalism. Bodies and objects are shot overlapping and from distorting perspectives; light struggles with shadow; back-stage and the work-in-progress exert their allure in a freeze-frame that reveals a different reading of reality.


The exhibition will be open 20:00 - 00:00 on the days of the performances at Peireos 260.
