Having experienced the turbulent WWII era, the young Panayiotis Vassilakis moved to Paris, where he engaged with Surrealism and early anarchist artists. His central inspiration was always the exploration of matter and space, with a special focus on the power of magnetism, which he introduced into his art as a driving and formative element.<\/p>\n<p>His first major recognition came with his <em>Teleglyphs<\/em>, sculptures using magnets to create dynamic movement and audience interaction. This pioneering method placed him at the global forefront of the art scene. In 1964, he created the masterpiece <strong>Magnetron<\/strong>, blending sculpture with mechanics and electronics, signaling the start of a series merging art, technology, and natural phenomena.<\/p>\n<p>Takis\u2019s relationship with magnetic fields became a hallmark of his artistic style and internationally recognized identity. Magnetism was not just a medium for expression but a subjective dimension of the world itself for him. His sense of weightlessness, invisibility, and pervasive energy shaped his work, flirting with metaphysical boundaries.<\/p>\n<p>Committed to preserving his vision, the Takis Foundation continues its activities true to the founder\u2019s mission, following his passing in August 2019.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Menia Kouli, Director of Communications and Public Relations at the Takis Foundation, spoke exclusively with us about the 100th anniversary of Takis\u2019s birth:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 Ms. Kouli, how do you feel about this grand celebration by the Foundation you represent?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn 2025, we honor and celebrate 100 years since the great artist Takis\u2019s birth, presenting throughout the year a rich and original artistic program with events at the Takis Foundation, in collaboration with major domestic and international institutions and foundations.<\/p>\n<p>The most significant event is the retrospective <strong>Takis \u2013 100 Years<\/strong> by the Vassilis &amp; Elise Goulandris Foundation at their Museums in Athens and Andros. It\u2019s also worth mentioning the creation of a collectible coin dedicated to Takis by the Bank of Greece, the National Mint, and the Ministry of Finance, to be issued starting in October.<\/p>\n<p>We also plan to create a city map with the placement of more Takis works in public spaces around Athens. Works and specially arranged audiovisual installations dedicated to Takis and his Foundation will be installed at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport from late June, at the Theocharakis Foundation, the SNFCC, and other sites in Athens across Greece.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What other events and parallel activities will take place?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlongside the permanent collection displayed at the Foundation\u2019s venues, and aiming to further highlight Takis\u2019s work and his dynamic presence in contemporary culture, the Takis Foundation has commissioned five esteemed Greek composers\u2014each from different aesthetic backgrounds\u2014to draw inspiration from, reinterpret, and compose new musical pieces based on selected works by Takis.<\/p>\n<p>From mid\u2011September, visitors at the Takis Foundation can stand before the sculptor\u2019s works while listening (via individual headphones) to music composed specifically for those visual pieces.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, on Takis\u2019s birthday\u2014October 29\u2014 an event and reception will be held at the Foundation\u2019s site, with <strong>free public entry<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 You\u2019ve described Takis as a mentor. In your role as Communications and PR Director, what impact did working closely with him have on you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving collaborated closely with the artist himself, I feel especially moved by this major retrospective exhibition at the Goulandris Museums.

In Andros, visitors can explore Takis\u2019s work from his earliest creations to the later pieces, focusing on his youth experiments showing initial influences and creative upheavals. At the Athens\u0384 museum, the focus is on <strong>Magnetic Fields<\/strong>, the foundation of his work, featuring pieces such as Magnetron, Magnetic Walls, Electromagnetic Spheres, and Musical works.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>Magnetic Fields and the Fourth Dimension<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In Athens, the exhibition highlights Magnetic Spheres and works referring to the \u201cfourth dimension,\u201d such as <em>To Adynaton \u2013 Man in Space<\/em>. Takis\u2019s spheres, integrated into dynamic, moving sculptures, invite viewers to contemplate the unknown and the invisible, engaging with nature\u2019s unseen yet undeniable forces.<\/p>\n<p>In Andros, the exhibition features works addressing everyday life and the symbolic role of technology. For example, <em>Signals<\/em> (1955)\u2014symbols of the modern age\u2014portray how technology has penetrated art and life in direct and expressive ways.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>Multidimensional Communication and Digital Dimension<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As part of the exhibition, the Foundation launches a new series of <strong>B &amp; E Goulandris Podcasts<\/strong>.

This exhibition, however, represents one of the most significant efforts to emphasize Takis\u2019s deep Greek roots alongside his global artistic impact in the 20th century.<\/p>\n<p>Takis, a true cosmopolitan and spiritual anarchist, channeled Greek artistic heritage into new paths and became a pioneer of contemporary art, with works that continue to shock and inspire.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_102738\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-102738\" style=\"width: 371px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-102738\" src=\"https:\/\/artviews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/TAKIS-ATHENS-4-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Takis 1\u221e\" width=\"371\" height=\"556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artviews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/TAKIS-ATHENS-4-scaled.jpg 1282w, https:\/\/artviews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/TAKIS-ATHENS-4-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artviews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/TAKIS-ATHENS-4-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/artviews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/TAKIS-ATHENS-4-280x420.jpg 280w, https:\/\/artviews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/TAKIS-ATHENS-4-150x225.jpg 150w, https:\/\/artviews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/TAKIS-ATHENS-4-300x449.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artviews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/TAKIS-ATHENS-4-696x1043.jpg 696w, https:\/\/artviews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/TAKIS-ATHENS-4-1068x1600.jpg 1068w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 371px) 100vw, 371px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-102738\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Takis 1\u221e, \u0391\u03b8\u03ae\u03bd\u03b1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Takis\u202f1\u221e<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Magnetron<\/em> (detail), 1964.
