Eleni Mylonas (Greek: Ελένη Μυλωνά; born 14 September 1944[1]) is a Greek-born American artist.

Early life and education

Eleni Mylonas was born on 14 September 1944 in Athens to father politician Georgios Mylonas, who's served as minister of Culture and Education, and mother Alex Mylona, sculptor and co-founder of the MOMus Museum Alex Mylona in Athens.[2] She received a BA from the University of Geneva in 1966 and an MA from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in 1967 as a Fulbright scholar.[3] She graduated in photography at the University of Westminster in 1972 and in painting and sculpture at the New York Studio School in 1995.[4]

Work

Mylonas is a multidisciplinary artist with works in traditional media, video art, and performance.

Her first exhibition was Nude Landscapes at the Zoumboulaki Gallery of Athens, in 1982.[1]

Her work has been featured in solo exhibitions at the MoMA PS1[5] in New York City; Benaki Museum[6] in Athens; Francoise Heitsch Gallery[7][8] in Munich; Ileana Tounta Contemporary Art Center[9][10][11][12][13] in Athens; Zoumboulaki Gallery[14][15] in Athens; Foundation of Hellenic Culture[16] in New York City and Art Resources Transfer.[17] Her work has been shown at various museums and galleries including, the Queens Museum[18] in New York City; MOMus Museum[19] in Thessaloniki; EMST Museum[20] in Athens; Cooper Union[21] in New York; Museum of Contemporary Art of Crete;[22] and the Alternative Museum[23] in New York City. She has collaborated with international curators including Joanna de Vos,[24] Beral Madra,[25] Christian Oxenius,[26] Edward Leffingwell[27] and Sozita Goudouna.[28] Three bodies of work from her photographic archive, Ellis Island, NY Graffiti/Street Art and Portraits of Artists & Personalities, are part of the MoMA Archives.[29]

Reviews

On the occasion of the New York exhibition of Mylonas' series of photographs of the abandoned Ellis Island,[30] American art critic April Kingsley wrote the images make "rubble-covered rags look like the draperies on the Nike of Samothrace." She added that the artist's "eye finds the formal beauty of ancient Greece at its most glorious in the least of the modern world's visual material--graffiti, the rubble of abandoned buildings and empty lots, and, recently wrecked automobiles."[31]

Critic Evely Vogel of the Süddeutsche Zeitung remarked that her 2014 exhibition "Town Crier" was "inspired by the demonstrators of the Arab spring" and "full of revolutionary urge and humor." The artist's "allegorical call," she concluded, "to "fight against tyranny is just too timeless."[32] During the first Athens Biennial, from 10 September until 18 November 2007, named "Destroy Athens" with the intention to "lay waste to the association of Greece with classical culture," her video piece Lamb of God that closed the show had been reportedly "captured on the first day of the U.S. invasion of Iraq." According to ArtNet's Brian Skar, the "spare" clip "hammer[ed] together in a single point, myth, the abject, and the groping for larger social significance that characterizes [the whole Biennial]."[33]

Personal life

In 1967, she married writer Elias Kulukundis, who subsequently became involved in springing outside the country her father who, at the time, was imprisoned and exiled in the Aegean island of Amorgos[34][35] by the regime. They divorced in the late 1970s.[36]
