Joannis Avramidis:

Rare Book
€ 321.00

Joannis Avramidis. Ausstellung Leopold Museum, Wien is the official catalogue for the retrospective exhibition of

Joannis Avramidis’s work held at the Leopold Museum in Vienna. The volume accompanies one of the most comprehensive presentations of Avramidis’ sculpture practice in Austria, reflecting on his lifelong engagement with the human figure and abstract form. The publication documents the exhibition’s installations and provides visual documentation of key works spanning the artist’s career — from early explorations of figuration to mature abstract sculptures and related drawings. The essays and curatorial texts situate Avramidis’ approach within the broader context of 20th-century sculpture, exploring his dialogue with classical traditions, geometric order, and phenomenological presence. Joannis Avramidis’ work consistently revolved around an abstracted human form, assembled from circular segments and transformed into balanced, monumental figures. His sculptures bring together clarity of form with subtle rhythmic dynamics, creating an iconic visual language described as a “rhythm of severity.” This catalogue serves both as a comprehensive record of the 2017 exhibition and as a critical entry point into Avramidis’ sculptural legacy, offering visual and textual insights into his significant contribution to modern and contemporary sculpture.
