    1


The contemporary art exhibition “The revival of the stones” will take place at the Fortified of Troupakides-Mourtzinoi in Olda Kardamyli, Messenia in Greece, organized by the curator and the Ephorate of Antiquities of Messenia aiming to give a new life to the archaeological imposing complex around the concept of the revival of the Maniot landscape. Myths, historical events, memories, are all bound with the reference point. Kardamyli was mentioned for the first time in Homer, referred to as the dowry that Agamemnon would give to Achilles provided the latter would marry one of Agamemnon’s daughters; Kardamyli is the place of origin of Beautiful Helen. The house of Troupakides which belonged to a wealthy family in Mani whose political contribution was important, and provided Kolokotronis with shelter. Also, the archival research, landscape of natural materiality, the towers architecture that were shelters for heroes of the past, the norms of patriarchy participate in a dialogue with contemporary visual and theoretical concepts.
