Νίκος Χουλιαράς (γ. 1940) |

Σπούδασε γλυπτική και σκηνογραφία στην ΑΣΚΤ(απόφοιτος
1967) ενώ δύο χρόνια αργότερα πήρε το «Βραβείο Παρθένη»για
τη ζωγραφική του. Πολύπλευρη καλλιτεχνική προσωπικότητα,
ξεκίνησε την εικαστική του πορεία με αφηρημένους πίνακες
που απεικόνιζαν αστρικές φόρμες να αιωρούνται στο λευκό
πεδίο. Ο χώρος αρχίζει να συγκεκριμενοποιείται
περισσότερα στα έργα του στις αρχές της δεκαετίας του 70
και τα εικονογραφικά μοτίβα γίνονται πιο εύληπτα αν και
παραμένουν ακόμη αινιγματικά. Παρουσίασε το έργο του σε
ατομικές και ομαδικές εκθέσεις στην Ελλάδα και στο
εξωτερικό. Μπιενάλε Αλεξάνδρειας, Expo Σεβίλλη, Ντάλας,
Τέξας κ.α. Έργα του βρίσκονται στην ΕΠΜΑΣ στην Π.Δ.
Ρόδου κ.α.

Nikos Houliaras (b. 1940) |

Nikos Houliaras, born in October
1940 in Ioannina, Epirus, is
undoubtedly one of the most
significant Greek artists. He
studied set design and sculpture
at the Athens School of Fine
Arts (Yannis Pappas workshop),
from which he graduated in 1967.
In 1969 he was granted first
prize at the Parthenis Awards
for his paintings. He has
participated in numerous group
exhibitions and has held many
individual exhibitions of his
paintings. Several of his works
can be found in museums,
foundations and private
collections throughout Greece
and abroad. Nikos Houliaras’s
work does not belong to any one
particular artistic trend; with
its rather mystic expressionism
of occasionally surrealist
proportions, it constitutes a
deeply esoteric and private
work, whose radiance and gravity
are nonetheless global.
What’s more, Nikos Houliaras’s
creativity is not limited to the
visual arts. He also happens to
be one of the most remarkable
poets and writers of modern
Greece and most of his literary
work has in fact been translated
into other languages and become
accessible to foreign audiences.
In addition, he has been one of
the most prominent lyricists and
composers of the last few
decades and has performed most
of his own songs. Last but not
least, he has also designed
numerous publications, and been
awarded the Leipzig
International Book Fair Prize
for book design twice.
