Because We Are Together (solo) GR

The National Museum of Contemporary Art Athens (EMST) is presenting the first in-depth presentation of Mikhail Karikis’ work in Greece with the title Because We Are Together. The exhibition is structured around six key audio-visual installations from Karikis’s work over the last decade which are complemented by selected smaller works, photographs, a library and texts. What they all share is a sense of polyphonic poetics in which separate narratives connect groups brought together by a sense of solidarity in their struggles for a better future. 28 Jan - 28 May 2023.

This Current Between Us, PPC National Electricity Company, GR

Mikhail Karikis presents work in a group exhibition held at the first steam-electric power station in Greece. The exhibition brings material from the historical archives of the PPC in dialogue with site-specific works. This Current Between Us examines the factory as a centre for the production of both power and materials, and views it as a social model, a system for the organisation of space and human/nonhuman life, an architectural management of existing relationships and a generator of new ones. Curated by Panos Giannikopoulos & Georgia Liapi // 16 Dec 2022 - 12 Mar 2023 @ PPC Historic Electric Station Neo Faliro, Piraeus, GR.
