Thessaloniki Museum Of Photography
Another Life: Human Flows, Unknown Odysseys
The great photographic exhibition of the Thessaloniki Museum of Photography about the migrant and refugee crisis will now be held at Peiraios 260. Twenty-six photographers – the majority of them active photojournalists – take part in this group exhibition, presenting over 160 of their works, depicting the human drama of leaving one’s home behind and heading into the unknown. Due to its geographical position, Greece has often been a gateway for migrant populations passing through to the rest of Europe, as has recently been the case. This exhibition tells the story of one of the greatest dramas in recent history. The photographers have captured the dramatic events in the making, focusing on the human element, and portraying the refugees’ despair, agony, loss, and sense of impasse. The main body of the exhibition consists of the work of professional photojournalists, complemented by instances of “citizen journalism,” and even photographic self-representation of refugees.
Opening hours: 19:00-24:00
