If you are in Thessaloniki, take the opportunity and visit the interesting exhibition Places of memory – Fields of vision organised by the Contemporary Art Centre of Thessaloniki (SMCA) until March 10, 2013.

The memory of Thessaloniki and other neighbouring cities, such as Istanbul or Belgrade, the individual outline of each place through testimonies, overlaps, remnants and revelations, and the city itself as a mnemonic space and psychic landscape, comprise the basic axes of this exhibition.

Sixteen paintings, prints, photographs, videos and installations – some older productions of the Contemporary Art Centre of Thessaloniki, as well as new productions that will be presented for the first time – intertwine and focus on the city’s experienced memory, the imagining of its past life and its dynamic projection in the future; they put on the map different regions from those usually celebrated through official, commemorative practices

The exhibition is part of the main programme of the Invisible Cities Festival. A Cosmography co-organised by the State Museum of Contemporary Art and the Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art. There will be also parallel events, educational programmes and guided tours.
