The prestigious international contemporary art show, Documenta 14, opens in a few weeks in Athens – yet no one seems to know about it. Until last week, even the central exhibition space, the National Museum of Contemporary Art, Athens (EMST) was still only advertising its last collaborative exhibition with Antwerp. In exchange, the Documenta artists will be moving into the emptied buildings of the former Fix brewery in Athens.

She hopes the Documenta in Athens can help as many “normal people” as possible discover contemporary art and understand its importance.
