SNFCC Members | Back to the Roots – Guided Tour of the exhibition “SNFCC 2006–2016: The Construction Minutes” with Yiorgis Yerolymbos

On February 23, the day of the SNFCC’s eighth birthday, SNFCC Members are guided by photographer Yiorgis Yerolymbos through the exhibition “SNFCC 2006-2016: The Construction Minutes.” Yiorgis Yerolymbos captured with his lens the impressive progress of the SNFCC’s construction over a period of ten years, thus offering us a new perspective on the reading of the building. The exhibition presents an exciting collection of photographs taken from above, documenting milestones of the construction process and illustrating the gigantic effort put into making the shared vision of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) and Italian architect Renzo Piano come true.

The exhibition “SNFCC 2006–2016: The Construction Minutes” was first held on the occasion of the 5th anniversary of the handover of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC) to the Greek State by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF). February 19–23, 2022, 5 days of festivities.
