Intro
The Art Of The Icon is a residency and video/comics/narrative project for visual artists, jewelers, crafters, designers, filmmakers, performers, art theorists, curators, and academics who wish to explore Athens' medieval and Byzantine cultural traditions that still live on. The residency program initiates participants in understanding how to read, and be inspired by, the icon tradition, and explains concepts of time, space, eternity, providence, and divine union embedded in the visual language of Orthodox art.
