El Greco prize for Ilya & Emilia Kabakov

With its innovative concept of an event as an art fair for galleries, independent artists and museum exhibitions, Art Thessaloniki has again been able to attract the attention of well over twenty thousand visitors for the sixth time. The fair once again clearly shows the connection between art, culture and society. This became particularly clear with the awarding of the El Greco prize to the Ukrainian-American artist couple Ilya and Emilia Kabakov for their life's work. On the occasion of the Russian war, this award ceremony also has an important political dimension in connection with the exhibition Dreams and Reality in cooderation with OSTEN museum. Skopje.
