Screening: 
The second part of the Here and Now: A Screening of the Sea, will be taking place in Athens. It is important to emphasise that part-two is not an attempt to recreate part-one in dislocation. In fact, it is the opposite. The show in Athens will be a demonstration of the impossibility to ever recreate or even accurately document a site and time specific work like Here and Now: A Screening of the Sea (part 1). Hence, a fragmented documentation along with live elements in the space will be an attempt to give life to a second consecutive work.

Here and Now: A Screening of the Sea (part 1) was a site specific work. It was inspired by its venue: an old stone house with a view to horizontal vastness and the sea. The work was about the temporality of the natural in contrast with the repetition of the identical copy within the terrain of the artificial world. All elements of the performance were ‘live/ alive’: the sea, the musician, the audience; everything is happening ‘here and now’. The performance was a physical simulation of a film. It is a collaboration between the environment, the artists and the audience for the creation of a unique experience. 
In the quadratic sound installation by George Markakis, his colleague the musician Pantelis Pilavios created live the soundtrack of the ‘film’, with solemn source of inspiration the present around him and only meeting point with the audience: the common view of the sea. 

Discussion:
The show will end with a discussion open to the public on the diffculty of accurately documentating site and/ or time specific artworks and the ways of exhibiting such works in galleries or museums.
