Nikos Markou and Kostis Velonis
Alpha-Delta Gallery
The title of this exhibition of recent works by Kostis Velonis and Nikos Markou“The Future Lies Behind Us: Two New Proposals Beside an Older One”was explained by the inclusion of a work by Vlassis Caniaris, produced during his DAAD residency in Berlin in 1973–75. Caniaris’s Possible Background, 1974, was shown in a room separate from the one where works by Markou and Velonis commingled. Caniaris’s installation presents a background of sorts, made from a black plastic drop cloth, in front of which found objects such as a tattered suitcase, a tricycle, a couple of battered baby carriages,
