Portraits of Women<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Georgios Katsagelos photography is\u00a0on the subject of female\u00a0presence with an emphasis on the difficulty they often experience in a male-dominated world. This subject has occupied him for more than three decades. He has photographed, for this purpose, on four continents, in more than twenty countries as well as in\u00a0his\u00a0homeland\u00a0Greece. The photographs include women in their workplaces, on the street or in their homes, but also immigrant women as well as those hosted in all kinds of institutions. What characterizes these photographs is that although the social class they belong to differs, as does the economic situation of the country in which they are\u00a0located, they share timeless human values. Motherhood, the need for survival, but also the way a woman sees her role and her image are traced in these photographs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This early work was first exhibited at the Teloglion Art Foundation of Thessaloniki in 2011 and a photo album entitled \u201cTrying harder\u201d has also been published by the publishing house, University Studio Press. The work continues to this day and is constantly enriched with new material. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
