L’oeuvre d’Athena Papadopoulos c’est l’amour et la violence, une alchimie parfaitement impossible tissée dans une esthétique qui mêle le surréalisme d’Unia Zürn, le féminisme d’Ana Mendieta, les fils d’Annette Messager et la dérision du muppetshow. Avec un propos féministe radical, l’artiste explore une oeuvre vicérale et sublimement dégoûtante.
The work of Athena Papadopoulos is love and violence, a perfectly impossible alchemy woven into an aesthetic that mixes the surrealism of Unia Zürn, the feminism of Ana Mendieta, the threads of Annette Messager and the derision of the muppetshow. With a radical feminist statement, the artist explores a vicious and sublimely disgusting work.
