A Reflection of Gratitude and Vision - Art Magazine Feature
Annita Apostolidou Platis reflects on her Art Magazine feature, where four of her artworks highlight the dialogue between Greek heritage, contemporary vision, and global cultural exchange.
As I proudly stand alongside my four artworks featured in the latest issue of Art Magazine, I am deeply honored to be part of this vibrant celebration of contemporary art that transcends borders and connects cultures. This edition's theme resonates profoundly with my journey as an artist, wherein my Greek heritage blends seamlessly with my dynamic exploration of color and form, nurtured from a young age under the guidance of Dimitris Kantopoulos.
My artistic philosophy has always been about bridging the gap between the traditional and the contemporary, a dialogue between the past and the present that is vividly reflected in my use of acrylics, ink, and impasto, as well as my pioneering mixed-media digital collages. Educated at the Marangoni Institute in Milan, with a rich background in fashion, jewelry design, and interior design, my work is a symphony of diverse influences—from Art Nouveau and Art Deco to Surrealism.
This feature in Art Magazine is not just a showcase of my art but a testament to the power of art to foster global dialogue and understanding. Through my work, I strive to offer a window into the interplay of the local and the global, the personal and the collective—inviting viewers to witness the confluence of historical motifs reimagined through a modern lens.
I extend my deepest thanks to the editor-in-chief, Allegra Barbagelata, and the entire team at Art Magazine for this incredible opportunity. It is a privilege to share this platform with such talented artists from around the world and to contribute to the ongoing conversation that art provokes in our lives.
As we continue to navigate these times of global connectivity, may we all find inspiration in the rich diversity and innovative spirit that art brings into our lives. Thank you for embracing my vision and joining me on this artistic journey.

"Embracing the Spectrum of Spring"
In her curatorial essay “Embracing the Spectrum of Spring” for the Barbagelata Contemporary Art Foundation, Annita Apostolidou Platis reflects on the season’s paradoxical nature—celebrating renewal while exploring deeper layers of melancholy, myth, and cultural memory.
article by Annita Apostolidou Platis
"In this collaborative exploration with the BCAF, I delve into the profound dualities of spring—a season as paradoxical as it is inspiring. As both curator and contributor, I guide readers through the emotional and symbolic spectrum that spring invokes. Synonymous with renewal and joy, spring also stirs deep sentimentality and introspective sadness. Through the lens of iconic cultural artifacts like Ella Fitzgerald's 'Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most' and Mary Oliver’s 'Spring Azures,' this article delves into the season's complex emotions. It also examines mythological figures such as Persephone and Konohanasakuya-hime, unveiling the cyclical interplay of life and death that defines spring. Let's uncover the nuanced layers of rebirth and reflection that spring inspires in art and culture."
