Visual “answers” to many questions are given by the forty photos which will be presented from October 22nd to November 1st at the ground floor of AUTH’s Administration Building, in Thessaloniki, Greece.
The exhibition will be also presented at Thessaloniki’s Archaeological Museum and the City Hall.
Some of the questions which will be addressed at this exhibition are: What can one search for under Acropolis? What optical illusion is created because of the landslides on Ropoto of Trikala? How can the Meteorological Centre of Mount Olympus be transformed into an ice sculpture.
