Communication is the key to the promotion and spread of the arts and culture, connecting the artist with the artwork and the audience. From its inception to today, CHEAPART emphasizes communication by bringing fresh and innovative ideas that lead the way across time.
Technology today has seemingly made communication easier, yet more impersonal at the same time. CHEAPART addresses this by facilitating direct interactions between artists and curators, where new collaborations can develop.
CHEAPARTWEEK is much more advanced and intricate than an exhibition; it represents the connection of a community of artists and art lovers that continuously evolves, creates, and functions much like a living organism.
It develops in response to contemporary circumstances, fostering relationships, collaborations, and solutions that serve as pioneering examples for their era. Showcasing contemporary art and artists through its diverse platforms is one of CHEAPART's most significant contributions to the contemporary Greek art scene. The most valuable aspect, as a pioneering organization, is its system that allows everyone to leverage the experience and applications of CHEAPART to carve out their own path, enriching the Athenian art scene.
The extensive and multidimensional, program that connects Greek and international artists includes not only CHEAPARTWEEK but also the annual artistic review Back to Athens, Athens Intersection, ARTmART in Vienna, and festivals like the Zig Zag Festival. CHEAPART makes the process of discovering art a more exciting experience by hosting exhibitions in buildings that have defined the Athenian landscape for the past 100 years. This exploration has revealed a hidden picture of Athens; those who have undertaken this journey have gained insight into the city's history through its buildings. From the nostalgia of the loss of the neoclassical heritage to the urban eclecticism, from the modern interwar movement to the residential boom of the 60s and 70s.
