Alexis Kyritsopoulos

He was born in Athens but discovered painting in Paris. His artwork features in galleries, books, vinyl records, CDs and posters. He has painted musical performances and created ‘moving paintings’, or in other words, animations. Sometimes he writes and illustrates his own books. At other times, he illustrates books written by others. So, apart from his solo exhibitions (Skoufa Gallery, Zouboulaki, Astra, Anemos) and some group exhibitions in which he participates, his paintings can be found in his books: The Fairy Tale of Colours, The White Horse, A Little Fairy Tale for Winter and Summer, Suddenly Christmas, Hide and Seek, One + 5 Caryatids (published by Kedros), Come, My Eyes, Adorn Yourself (published by Agra) and S’AG (published by Armos).
He collaborates with Stelios Ramfos on his books and with Dionysis Savvopoulos on his musical shows (Acharnes, Kourema, Savvorama), albums and CDs. He creates artwork for the music of Nikos Xydakis (album covers, CDs and posters). He has also illustrated Manos Hadjidakis’s The Absurdities. He creates artwork for the Athens Concert Hall (Petros and the Wolf, Savvorama, Lysistrata). He collaborates with Professor Vasso Tokatlidou (Department of Applied Linguistics, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) on the graphic concept and illustration of French educational books.
