Last week we travelled to Paris and more specifically to the Parisian suburbs of Montreuil, on the occasion of the focus event under the theme \u201cUn Souffle Grec\u201d organised by the Nouveau th\u00e9\u00e2tre de Montreuil.<\/p>\n

The Nouveau th\u00e9\u00e2tre de Montreuil was dressed in the colours of Greece and raised questions on political and artistic issues of a country that has become a crisis symbol and also on the issue of solidarity between people, through building a social Europe that is not an economic tool for imposing austerity and subordination, aiming at the democracy we dream of.<\/p>\n

The theatre\u2019s stage was transformed into a Greek tavern which seeks to approach political, social and artistic issues, through a mixed show of performances, discussions and \u201crebetiko\u201d songs which triggered the public to start dancing. Artists, students, activists and professionals of the Greek and French political and cultural scene have participated in the events.<\/p>\n

Eleusis 2021 participated in the discussion under the theme \u201cGreece in crisis: an experimental workshop, the mark of a Europe in the middle of disorder\u201d together with Olivier Delormes, historian and writer of the book \u201cLa Gr\u00e8ce et les Balkans. Du Ve si\u00e8cle \u00e0 nos jours \u2013 Greece and the Balkans, from the 5th century to the present\u201d.<\/p>\n

During the discussion, the artistic director of Eleusis 2021, Kelly Diapouli, talked about how the Greek contemporary cultural scene functions, highlighting the independent scene\u2019s need for support and strength, provided that it is the base of the Greek contemporary artistic production.<\/p>\n

Finally, on the occasion of her visit in Paris, Kelly Diapouli met the representatives of French Cultural Institutions like Milica Ilic from the Office National de la Diffusion Artistique (ONDA), Albane Ahrens from the organization La Belle Ouvrage and Cristomer Crimes and Stephane Verlet \u2013 Bottero from Nature Addicts Fund, with which they discussed about Atelier Mobile and Nature Addicts Academy to be held in Eleusis next May.<\/p>\n\n\n
