A conference titled "Athens through Photography" will be held at the Onassis Cultural Center on November 26.

Greek and foreign academics and artists will attempt to reinterpret the Athenian urban landscape (Photographic Interpretations of Athens by Panos Kokkinias), emphasize the importance of learning space through experience (From Memory to Experience. How the mobile phone is transforming our relationship to imagery by Stephen Mayes) and recapture snapshots of a nostalgic Athens (Literary reading of Athens in the late 19th century by Aliki Spyropoulou & Towards an Archaeology of images: Athens by Io Paschou).
