The National Gallery in Athens, Greece, inaugurated a digital exhibition of El Greco attended by Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos as well as Attica Region governor Rena Dourou and Alternate Minister for Culture Nikos Xydakis. The exhibition presents the artist’s monumental works that cannot be transferred as a result of their size, or because they are in temples and religious institutions. With the help of advanced digital technology, collections are recomposed (shrines, chapels, etc.) whose their works have been scattered in museums and collections around the world. Photographs that have been ordered specifically for this programme give visitors the chance to tour the exhibition, introducing the viewer in the creation scene itself. (source: ana-mpa)
