Varvara Roza Galleries and The Blender Gallery are proud to present the second major solo exhibition in London of Philip Tsiaras: “The Return of THE SUPERDOT: A Retrospective. The retrospective exhibition will feature a historic survey of paintings by prolific international artist Philip Tsiaras, known as ‘The Greek Warhol’, and will run from November 30th to December 23rd , 2022 at Gallery 8, 8 Duke Street St. James’s, London. A full-length, hardback book titled “The SUPERDOT”, published by Key Books, will accompany the exhibition. The New York-based artist will attend the invitation only opening event on Wednesday November 30th.

In a mosaic of millions of dots, the international pop artist presents modern paintings of celebrities that he calls “Divas, Personas, Monsters, and Friends”. A child of two worlds, Greek-American Tsiaras fuses the old world with the new while creating a personal universe that exhibits a brilliance of rare creations as a painter, sculptor, photographer, and poet. Born in the United States, the son of Greek immigrants who left worn-torn Northern Greece, he received a privileged education at Amherst College where he studied music and comparative literature. A trained classical musician, he received a fellowship for his own poetry as well as his translations of contemporary Greek poets, primarily Ritsos, Cavafy, and Kariotakis.
