About the exhibition
Recast in the mold of a taxonomic ordering of things, chronology becomes the alibi of time, a way of making use of time without reflecting on it. – Michel de Certeau (1986:216)
History can never be reduced to a simple articulation of how things truly were. Any such attempt at interpretation is doomed to submit history’s complexity to a totalizing, relentless positivism. If history were to be understood as absolute knowledge – if we were ever seduced by this possibility – it would be attainable only after its very end, after the falling of dusk. History is nevertheless living.
Walter Benjamin once defined history as remembrance. Remembrance is not a definite science, nor a settled affair: it intervenes, modifies, and redeems. It turns what presents itself with the semblance of completeness into the resoundingly incomplete, opening new territories and futures still to be charted. It transforms the reified image of the past into a dialectical one, what appears to be a closed-off, non-communicative object, into a process of object-formation: a constellation of memory and experience. In this understanding of history, something is irretrievably lost only insofar as it is not recognized by the present as its own concern (On the Concept of History, 1940). What artists perceive as their own concern from this history produces, and is produced by, their self-understanding as social subjects. A link and a break in time explores what members of the artistic community at The American College of Greece consider worth citing and reflecting on from the college’s history in a non-chronological, non-linear configuration. Drawing on their dual roles as artists and educators, as well as on personal and collective memories, participating artists offer a meditation on the past while alluding to the present and future.
This year marks 150 years since the college’s founding. In 1875, Mary West, a missionary from Boston, opened “The American School for Girls” in a restored mansion in Smyrna, driven by the idea of liberating women from illiteracy. From its relocation to Athens following the catastrophe of Smyrna, to its use as a military hospital during the Greek-Italian war, and its transformation during the German occupation, the college has undergone multiple redefinitions. In 1963, it moved to its current campus on the slopes of Hymettus in Agia Paraskevi; in 2012, the School of Fine and Performing Arts was renamed in honor of artist and benefactor Frances Rich (1910-2007). This exhibition reflects on these transitions, not as milestones in a linear progression, but as layered moments that form a constellation of lived, institutional memory.
Rather than imposing order, Eelco Runia proposes that historical understanding emerges through disruption – turning things upside down, pulling them apart, and “making a mess”. This approach involves self-questioning, where historians grapple with what they bring to the subject. In this framework, creating a mess becomes an invitation to open ourselves to the contingencies of history and its openness to the future – a way of fathoming discontinuity and unforeseeable leaps and bounds. As Runia writes, ‘the march of chronicity is interrupted, and past, present, and future start to play hide and seek’ (Moved by the Past, 2014, xiv). A link and a break in time brings together new works in various media by the faculty of the Visual Arts program at Deree – ACG, mostly created in collaboration with academic peers and students, and presented in dialogue with artworks from the ACG Art Collection and archival material. The exhibition explores the college’s long-lasting educational mission and its ongoing capacity to adapt. It interrogates how the college has redefined its core activities and values, particularly the evolving role of art education, while foregrounding notions of diversity, access, equality, freedom of speech, ecological consciousness, and connection to both the built and natural environments.
The exhibition is conceived as a collaged roadmap, visualizing the shifting field of arts education at the college. Centered on the development of student practices under the mentorship of experienced artists, the exhibition fosters collaboration, co-creation, and mutual learning, offering an alternative to the prevailing emphasis on individualism and competition that characterizes the current educational climate. What do aspiring artists need to learn, and how do faculty members’ practices and experiences shape their growth? How do educational legacies inform current pedagogies, and what values endure in today’s turbulent world?
The gallery becomes a testing ground and a platform for open dialogue, where multiple temporalities and perspectives converge. The creative and critical thinking skills embedded in art and broader educational practice foster a sense of hopeful transformation — our ability to act in the present and shape the future: after all, students have long been at the forefront of change. Through experimental and imaginative propositions, participating artists explore the vital role of art-making in shaping cultural imaginaries in response to entangled climate, political, technological, and humanitarian crises. Under a collaborative framework, this exhibition positions the art school as a responsive learning community that inspires solidarity, shared responsibility, and collective action.

About the exhibition
Clay and textile—two of humanity’s most ancient and eloquent materials—serve as profound witnesses to human experience. Through impression, weave, and mark, these materials preserve intimate traces of touch and intention, creating permanent records of gesture across time. This exhibition brings together ten contemporary artists from the Mediterranean, Middle East, and their diasporas who harness these materials’ inherent capacity for memory and testimony.
The relationship between clay and textile is deeply entwined in human cultural memory. From the impressed patterns on ancient vessels to the encoded narratives in traditional weaving, these materials have long served as repositories of cultural knowledge and technical innovation. This is most poetically embodied in the Sleeping Lady of Malta—a Neolithic clay figurine who’s carefully rendered drapery speaks to humanity’s enduring impulse to document both form and fabric.
The artists presented here extend this legacy, transforming these ancient mediums into contemporary testimonies of identity, displacement, belonging, and cultural preservation.
The selected works, including several new commissions, demonstrate diverse approaches to material testimony:
Paolo Colombo’s commissioned works for ITERARTE embrace the Chamba Rumal tradition—a 17th-century embroidery technique once practiced by Himalayan royal women—where silk threads transform muslin into intricate narratives. His signature visual language of lines, dots, and squares, originally inspired by Byzantine and Classical mosaics, finds new resonance through thread. The embroidered works extend his meditative practice into textile form, where each stitch echoes the precise geometry of his compositions while engaging with living craft traditions of the Indian subcontinent.
Iliodora Margellos engages deeply with embroidery’s dual heritage as domestic craft and tool of resistance. Her meticulously stitched works, developed over months of patient labor, break free from traditional grid structures to create emotional landscapes that reveal themselves differently from afar and in intimate proximity. Analepsis (After the Mares) exemplifies this approach, while “Hope, a Field of Poppies”—created in collaboration with INAASH through ITERARTE—connects her practice to Palestinian refugee women in Lebanon, acknowledging embroidery’s ongoing role as a portable medium of cultural preservation and resistance. Each stitch in her work becomes a meditation on nature’s forms and a testament to embroidery’s enduring power as both personal expression and political witness.
Majd Abdel Hamid in newly commissioned and existing work reuses works on fabric and embroidery, to underline the multifaceted dimensions of use, inviting the viewer to join him in rethinking notions of memory, trauma and psychological nuances as an ongoing archive of existence. His work transforms materials into records of human experience, challenging conventional approaches to documentation.
The ceramic works of Elif Uras and Tancredi di Carcaci investigate how traditional forms carry contemporary cultural tensions. Working between New York and Iznik—the historic center of Ottoman ceramic production—Uras creates wheel-thrown plate paintings that bridge ceramics and textile patterns, underlining female labor and class through traditional techniques and contemporary sensibility. Di Carcaci employs the ancient practice of spolia—the repurposing of architectural fragments—as a metaphor for our shifting relationship with the sacred, examining how contemporary forms of idolatry emerge from the ruins of religious imagery.
Francesco Simeti’s deeply layered works draw on social, philosophical, and environmental discourses, particularly exploring water’s dual nature through site-specific digital collages and textile installations. Through layered imagery that incorporates historical and contemporary sources, his works map the transformation of natural landscapes, using fabric’s inherent mutability to reflect on ecological shifts and human intervention.
Through a dynamic fusion of sequins, gouache, and graphite, Lydia Delikoura’s works explore the bonds between humans, creatures, and landscape. She creates harmonious spaces where shimmering elements—both natural and synthetic—interweave with themes of sisterhood and impossible love, drawing inspiration from classical mythology. This investigation extends into her ITERARTE collaborations, where paintings are transformed into functional objects like stools, challenging conventional distinctions between fine art and design while preserving traces of material evolution.

Hale Ekinci transforms domestic textiles into repositories of immigrant memory, merging Middle Eastern and Western traditions through a distinctive process of repurposing family photographs. In her newly commissioned Under One Roof (2025) installation and earlier works like Travel Pillow Necklace (2023) and Apron (2022), she obscures faces with French knots and overlays traditional Middle Eastern patterns with contemporary Western symbols. Influenced by Turkish Oya—meaningful lace edgings on headscarves traditionally used by women for non-verbal communication—the piece features exaggerated, colourful crochet edges resembling paragraphs or letters, encoding messages in their own right.
Afsoon’s ceramic vessels navigate between function and storytelling, drawing on her transcultural journey from Iran through California to London Fools and Devils (2025) transforms traditional Persian vessels into contemporary narratives. Each piece merges cultural symbols with talisman-like elements, reimagining an ancient tale of innocence and temptation through the lens of diasporic identity.
Nuveen Barwari’s work materializes the complexities of Kurdish-American identity through textile interventions. In Cola and Chiya, she pairs references to Kurdish mountains with Coca-Cola imagery, creating a charged dialogue between traditional and contemporary cultural symbols. Her architectural window installations, constructed from four traditional Kurdish dresses representing Kurdistan’s regions, transform intimate garments into monumental structures that speak to both fragmentation and preservation of cultural heritage across borders.
Through these diverse approaches, clay and textile emerge not merely as artistic media but as active participants in the preservation and transformation of cultural memory. Each work serves as both witness and testimony, speaking to the enduring power of materials to carry forward human stories across time and geography.
Participating artists: Afsoon, Nuveen Barwari, Tancredi di Carcaci, Paolo Colombo, Lydia Delikoura, Hale Ekinci, Majd Abdel Hamid, Iliodora Margellos, Francesco Simeti, Elif Uras.

Change Makers
featuring Lefteris Arapakis, co-founder of Enaleia
Produced by Dr. Mary Cardaras, Director of The Demos Center – ACG
Directed by Professor Casey Beck, Program Director of Digital Media Practices, Tulane University
About the documentary:
Change Makers, featuring Lefteris Arapakis of Enaleia, is a standalone documentary short that also serves as a pilot episode for a potential series exploring the power of individuals to make a difference in the fight against the climate crisis.
Lefteris, along with his best friend, founded Enaleia—initially conceived as a fishing school to address unemployment in Greece and to help prepare the industry for the retirement of older fishermen by training a new generation.
However, during this process, they uncovered another urgent issue: plastic pollution in the sea. Fishermen were routinely separating plastic from their catch—only to throw it back into the water. Lefteris decided to involve the fishing community in tackling this larger environmental threat—one that directly endangered their livelihoods.
This compelling film brings to light the urgent need for ocean conservation and the inspiring work being done to protect marine life and coastal communities.
The event will be held in English and will be free and open to the public.

About the event
The European Financial Management Association (EFMA) was founded in 1991 by Professor John Doukas (https://www.efmaefm.org/0DOUKAS/doukas.php) to encourage research and disseminate knowledge about financial decision making in all areas of finance as it relates to European corporations, financial institutions and capital markets. To achieve its objective, the European Financial Management Association provides its membership with a refereed journal, the European Financial Management, and holds Annual Meetings at which members exchange ideas, present and discuss their research.
The EFM “Merton H. Miller” Doctoral Seminar, sponsored by the EFM Journal, is an established integral part of the EFMA annual meeting. It constitutes a unique opportunity for PhD students to enhance their research skills through keynote speeches, tutorials and direct interaction with experienced academics.
In addition to keynote lectures and speeches, special sessions are being held during the conference, featuring panel discussions on timely topics that range from bank governance to collateral and credit as well as shipping finance.
This year, we are delighted to welcome Professor Rene M. Stulz (https://u.osu.edu/stulz.1/) of The Ohio State University as the keynote speaker of the 2025 Annual Meeting.

About the exhibition
Clay and textile—two of humanity’s most ancient and eloquent materials—serve as profound witnesses to human experience. Through impression, weave, and mark, these materials preserve intimate traces of touch and intention, creating permanent records of gesture across time. This exhibition brings together ten contemporary artists from the Mediterranean, Middle East, and their diasporas who harness these materials’ inherent capacity for memory and testimony.
The relationship between clay and textile is deeply entwined in human cultural memory. From the impressed patterns on ancient vessels to the encoded narratives in traditional weaving, these materials have long served as repositories of cultural knowledge and technical innovation. This is most poetically embodied in the Sleeping Lady of Malta—a Neolithic clay figurine who’s carefully rendered drapery speaks to humanity’s enduring impulse to document both form and fabric.
The artists presented here extend this legacy, transforming these ancient mediums into contemporary testimonies of identity, displacement, belonging, and cultural preservation.
The selected works, including several new commissions, demonstrate diverse approaches to material testimony:
Paolo Colombo’s commissioned works for ITERARTE embrace the Chamba Rumal tradition—a 17th-century embroidery technique once practiced by Himalayan royal women—where silk threads transform muslin into intricate narratives. His signature visual language of lines, dots, and squares, originally inspired by Byzantine and Classical mosaics, finds new resonance through thread. The embroidered works extend his meditative practice into textile form, where each stitch echoes the precise geometry of his compositions while engaging with living craft traditions of the Indian subcontinent.
Iliodora Margellos engages deeply with embroidery’s dual heritage as domestic craft and tool of resistance. Her meticulously stitched works, developed over months of patient labor, break free from traditional grid structures to create emotional landscapes that reveal themselves differently from afar and in intimate proximity. Analepsis (After the Mares) exemplifies this approach, while “Hope, a Field of Poppies”—created in collaboration with INAASH through ITERARTE—connects her practice to Palestinian refugee women in Lebanon, acknowledging embroidery’s ongoing role as a portable medium of cultural preservation and resistance. Each stitch in her work becomes a meditation on nature’s forms and a testament to embroidery’s enduring power as both personal expression and political witness.
Majd Abdel Hamid in newly commissioned and existing work reuses works on fabric and embroidery, to underline the multifaceted dimensions of use, inviting the viewer to join him in rethinking notions of memory, trauma and psychological nuances as an ongoing archive of existence. His work transforms materials into records of human experience, challenging conventional approaches to documentation.
The ceramic works of Elif Uras and Tancredi di Carcaci investigate how traditional forms carry contemporary cultural tensions. Working between New York and Iznik—the historic center of Ottoman ceramic production—Uras creates wheel-thrown plate paintings that bridge ceramics and textile patterns, underlining female labor and class through traditional techniques and contemporary sensibility. Di Carcaci employs the ancient practice of spolia—the repurposing of architectural fragments—as a metaphor for our shifting relationship with the sacred, examining how contemporary forms of idolatry emerge from the ruins of religious imagery.
Francesco Simeti’s deeply layered works draw on social, philosophical, and environmental discourses, particularly exploring water’s dual nature through site-specific digital collages and textile installations. Through layered imagery that incorporates historical and contemporary sources, his works map the transformation of natural landscapes, using fabric’s inherent mutability to reflect on ecological shifts and human intervention.
Through a dynamic fusion of sequins, gouache, and graphite, Lydia Delikoura’s works explore the bonds between humans, creatures, and landscape. She creates harmonious spaces where shimmering elements—both natural and synthetic—interweave with themes of sisterhood and impossible love, drawing inspiration from classical mythology. This investigation extends into her ITERARTE collaborations, where paintings are transformed into functional objects like stools, challenging conventional distinctions between fine art and design while preserving traces of material evolution.

Hale Ekinci transforms domestic textiles into repositories of immigrant memory, merging Middle Eastern and Western traditions through a distinctive process of repurposing family photographs. In her newly commissioned Under One Roof (2025) installation and earlier works like Travel Pillow Necklace (2023) and Apron (2022), she obscures faces with French knots and overlays traditional Middle Eastern patterns with contemporary Western symbols. Influenced by Turkish Oya—meaningful lace edgings on headscarves traditionally used by women for non-verbal communication—the piece features exaggerated, colourful crochet edges resembling paragraphs or letters, encoding messages in their own right.
Afsoon’s ceramic vessels navigate between function and storytelling, drawing on her transcultural journey from Iran through California to London Fools and Devils (2025) transforms traditional Persian vessels into contemporary narratives. Each piece merges cultural symbols with talisman-like elements, reimagining an ancient tale of innocence and temptation through the lens of diasporic identity.
Nuveen Barwari’s work materializes the complexities of Kurdish-American identity through textile interventions. In Cola and Chiya, she pairs references to Kurdish mountains with Coca-Cola imagery, creating a charged dialogue between traditional and contemporary cultural symbols. Her architectural window installations, constructed from four traditional Kurdish dresses representing Kurdistan’s regions, transform intimate garments into monumental structures that speak to both fragmentation and preservation of cultural heritage across borders.
Through these diverse approaches, clay and textile emerge not merely as artistic media but as active participants in the preservation and transformation of cultural memory. Each work serves as both witness and testimony, speaking to the enduring power of materials to carry forward human stories across time and geography.
Participating artists: Afsoon, Nuveen Barwari, Tancredi di Carcaci, Paolo Colombo, Lydia Delikoura, Hale Ekinci, Majd Abdel Hamid, Iliodora Margellos, Francesco Simeti, Elif Uras.
