The fine line between the old and the new, between art forms and history — this is what we’d like to explore in our new lecture series within the exhibition Echoes of Her: Women of Greek Myths. The new lecture series from XeniArtSpace is not only an exploration of our latest exhibition about women in Greek mythology, but also a unique opportunity to see painting, theatre, literature, and psychology through the lens of ancient myths.
