Description and interpretation of the opposite signs / 1

The painter, with his easel in front of him and all the tools of his trade at his side, looks across the landscape he is about to paint. Here, however, the landscape exists as a historical event and not as a state of the natural environment. The traces of history that exist as texts (written or spoken or simply in memory) and the images that are part of them are the points that G. Hadjimichalis will interpret in order to construct a work that is primarily painterly, reinterpreting the concept of historical painting and landscape painting.
