Adrianos Efthymiadis
Adrianos Efthymiadis is a 25 year-old artist and researcher from Athens, Greece. He attended The Cooper Union’s Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture in New York from the year 2015 to 2017, when he decided to discontinue his studies and move back to Greece where, for the next three years, he concentrated on the study of philosophy (phenomenology) and theology under philosopher Stephanos Rosanis. He considers himself a highly un-trained clown of many disciplines, a jack of no trade, a jester of an ever-dying circus of the street.
In the past years, Adrianos has been working primarily as an artist, having participated in both solo and group shows (i.e. 17th Venice Architecture Biennale, 2021 Art Athina Virtua etc.) as well as a research assistant and guest lecturer in venues/institutions (such as İstanbul’s Bilgi Üniversitesi, Politecnico di Torino, the Latvian (Riga) Academy of Music’s conference on Artistic Research and others).
Over the past year Adrianos also acted as Associate Curator and Project Manager at the 17th Venice Architecture Biennale’s CITYX Venice Italian Virtual Pavilion for Arts Letters & Numbers’ exhibition titled “SunShip: The Arc That Makes The Flood Possible.”
