Jannis Kounellis: Labyrinth Without Walls

25 Sep, 2026 - 24 Jan, 2027

Centro Galego de Arte Contemporánea (CGAC)

Jannis Kounellis: Labyrinth Without Walls invites you to explore installations inspired by the artist’s childhood in the port of Piraeus and his bond with the sea. The exhibition reflects on themes of journey, migration, and maritime transport, offering a thoughtful look at how travel’s poetic side has faded in the industrial age. You navigate a metaphorical labyrinth that feels both personal and historical, shaped by Kounellis’s contemporary archaeological approach. It’s an experience encouraging quiet reflection as much as curiosity. The labyrinth isn’t confined by walls but opens a space to consider the layers of history and memory tied to the sea. The installations create a rhythm mirroring the ebb and flow of travel and migration, making it easy to lose yourself in the narrative. Whether drawn to art, history, or the stories behind movement and change, this exhibition offers a subtle, immersive journey. It’s a chance to connect with the past in a way both intimate and expansive.
