painting, oil on canvas
Stellios Skoulos, – writes Giorgos Lazogas, – the most talented student of Sahini, chose a lonely, methodical way, but also with great faith. I remain a fan of his paintings and his exceptional drawings which are the identity of an era that I miss, of the dialogue and the companionship that was lost, of Thessaloniki that left irrevocably. I could say a lot about Stellios Skoulos. For the 70s, for Thessaloniki even more, for the painting workshop in Architecture, a substitute for the Fine Arts that did not exist yet, which since the time of Lefakis cultivated new views and practices, encouraged young people and provided essential information about international movements of Art, something unprecedented then for the Greek data. The idea of Sahini, a teacher but mainly an artist, very substantial and active, something that was probably never recognized, was the exhibition at the French Institute in 1975, of a group of his students, close to me, called “IDENTITY” for our common references and our need to declare our presence in those years of “protest”.
