With a presence in exotic places that most creators dream of, Philippos Tsiaras never stops being inspired by Greek mythology and transmuting it into works that captivate the international art scene. We met on the occasion of his personal exhibition "Tsiaras, Poseidon & The Hyperbolic Horse" which is hosted for the whole summer at the Blender Gallery in Glyfada and presents over 30 years of his work. He shared with us unknown aspects of his personal and professional life, his future plans, but also a guide to success for young artists.

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.
