COSTAS VAROTSOS
“Art knows no boundaries. Art abolishes frontiers, because ideas transcend boundaries and go beyond frontiers. That is the conclusion to be reached from the career of Costas Varotsos, a Greek artist of the world, whose work has always relied on his Greek endowment (Doric plainness -Greek abstraction – the minimum -the synopsis – the Aristotelian reduction – the pre-Socratic fundamental – light – transparency – simplicity – the incorporeal Platonic idea) while at the same time possessing the horizon of the world or even of the universe, the cosmos.”
