Exploring Music, Writing & the Cultural Life of Athens with KIRIAKOS SPIROU - Highlights

“This particular exhibition definitely had to do with my close relationship to dance. I have collaborated a lot with choreographers for contemporary dance theater, and I was often advising collaborators, so we would create the tasks and the content of the choreography together. We would exchange the tasks. We would create the score and narrative together. Also, because I’m a pianist, which is a very physically demanding instrument, you have this geography of the piano. I think this exhibitions links to my own experience as a performer and composer for dance and the relationship that music has with the body.” Kiriakos Spirou is an editor, writer, content creator, pianist and composer based in Athens, Greece. After studying music in his hometown of Limassol, and then musicology in Athens, he moved to The Netherlands to complete a master's course in Music Design at the Utrecht School for the Arts. He is currently the deputy editor of Yatzer.com, and works for various publications as a freelancer. He is also the founding editor of Und. Athens, a new, alternative art guide for Athens. · kiriakosspirou.wordpress.com/about/  · yatzer.com/yatzerpedia/kiriakos-spirou
