Greece’s Modern Women Artists – Online Event
Join HAWC in the Greek Modernists Online Artists Series
Session I – Saturday, June 20, 2026 10am CDT
Natalia Mela and Pepi Svoronou:
Two Bold Trailblazers of Modern Greek Art
What stories of modern Greece were never part of our diaspora education?
Many of us grew up learning about the Golden Age of Greece, 1821, mythology, and our family’s roots. But what about the remarkable newer Greek artists who helped shape modern Greek identity through sculpture, painting, color, movement, and creative expression?
Join us for the first program on Women Artists in our two-part cultural arts series: Saturday, June 20, 2026 10:00 AM Central (Zoom)
Natalia Mela: Sculpture, Movement, and Modern Greece
Discover the pioneering sculptor whose powerful works transformed metal, stone, and marble into expressions of strength, freedom, and motion.
Pepi Svoronou: Color, Emotion, and Transformation
Explore the life and work of a visionary artist whose bold use of color and deeply personal artistic language reflected the spirit of modern Greece.
