SUMMARY:George Manginis\, "'For the Benefit of the Nation': A Collection of Chinese Art for Greece"
DESCRIPTION:George Aristides Eumorfopoulos (1863-1939)\, was a British collector of Chinese\, Korean and Near Eastern art. He was born at 43 Bedford Street South\, Mount Pleasant\, Merseyside\, the son of Aristides Georges Eumorfopoulos (1825–1897) and Mariora Eustratius Scaramanga (1840–1908). His grandparents had fled the Greek island of Chios during the massacre of its population by the Ottoman army in 1822. Eumorfopoulos worked for a London firm established in 1819 – Ralli Brothers\, of Greek origin\, a firm of private bankers who were also importers of rice\, cotton and hemp from India. By the time he retired in August 1934 he had risen to the position of Vice President of the firm. Since 1922 he lived at 7 Chelsea Embankment in London\, a townhouse he had converted into a museum. Eumorfopoulos was a respected collector of Asian art. In the early stages of his collecting activity he focused on European medieval and renaissance art and 18th century ceramics alongside Japanese art\, but he soon diversified into early Chinese art\, especially after 1906. He not only made use of the services of experts or agents\, but also relied on his own rapidly growing experience in acquiring objects. His collection of Oriental art grew to an enormous size\, obliging him to add a two-storey extension to the back of his Chelsea house. He founded the Oriental Ceramic Society and was its first president from 1921 until his death in 1939. He organised and funded the publication of eleven volumes illustrating and describing items from his collection during the 1920s and early 1930s. Free access to his collection and encouragement from him inspired his neighbors Nell and Charles Vyse to experiment with Oriental stoneware glazes. Eumorfopoulos had intended to bequeath his collection to the British nation\, but the Great Depression of the 1930s forced him to sell part of it\, in what was called ‘a princely gesture’\, to the Victoria and Albert and British Museums for £100 000 in 1934/5; he also sold some duplicates through Bluett’s\, the London art dealers\, and between 1927 and 1936 donated 800 pieces to the Benaki Museum\, Athens. This lecture looks at the fascinating life of this collector and at the important collection that the Benaki holds. \nGeorge Manginis is Academic Director of the Benaki Museum. \nTo receive a Zoom link for this lecture\, please email hellenic@humnet.ucla.edu

SUMMARY:Mina Moraitou\, "'Mr. Byzantoine et ses amis': Antonis Benakis and the Art Scene of Alexandria"
DESCRIPTION:Antonis Benakis was born in Egypt into a Greek family with a strong sense of duty towards society. He maintained close ties with the homeland and had\, as all Greeks did\, a strong sense of Greek identity although he was born and raised abroad. In a time of irredentist ideas\, he contributed to Greece’s struggle to expand its borders by supporting operations or participating along with other family members. As he was growing up in Alexandria\, Benakis became a passionate art collector. His had a wide range of interests and gradually he managed to form remarkable collections.This paper will focus on the artistic scene of Alexandria during the years before the move to Athens\, the contribution of the Greek community and especially the role of Antonis Benakis. Furthermore\, it will highlight the eclectic taste of the collector and the way in which it was reflected in the creation of the Benaki Museum in Athens.  \nMina Moraitou is Curator of the Benaki Museum of Islamic Art \nTo register for the Zoom lecture\, please RSVP to hellenic@humnet.ucla.edu \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Aliki Tsigialou\, "Nelly's: Reflections on the Life and Work of the Female Photographer Elli Seraidari-Sougioultzoglou (1899-1998)
DESCRIPTION:A native of Aydin in Asia Minor\, Elli Souyioultzoglou-Seraidari–better known by her professional name of Nelly’s–was first influenced by German trends in photography. The two main characteristics of her work\, and indeed of her life\, were freedom and movement. She owed her pictorial technique and her classical sense of aesthetics to the influence of her German teachers\, Hugo Erfurth and Franz Fiedler. However\, in 1924\, after establishing herself in Athens and opening a photography studio in Ermou Street\, she adopted a more Greek-centered and conservative approach to her work. An early interest in portraiture\, maintained throughout her professional career in Greece and the USA\, provides us with rare pictures of interwar Athenian society\, as well as an important source of information on America’s Greek immigrants. From 1927 until the outbreak of World War II\, Nelly’s traveled throughout Greece\, documenting the entire panorama of Greek life. As a Diaspora Greek\, Nelly’s view of Greece tended to be somewhat “idealized”. Her photographs appeared in official tourist publications that were circulated abroad\, and contributed to creating the earliest visual symbols of Greece’s “philosophy regarding tourism.” She systematically depicted the ancient monuments and archaeological sites of Greece. Her experiments with natural light and her photographs of ancient temples\, demonstrating their interrelationship\, are true masterpieces\, bringing to mind the work of Erfurth’s German student\, Walter Hege. Nelly’s photographs of dancers in Germany and\, above all\, on the Acropolis (1923-29) demonstrate exceptional thematic cohesion and identify her as one of the leading dance photographers of the interwar period. Having gone into self-imposed exile in the USA following the outbreak of World War II in 1939\, she added advertising photography\, color photography and photo reporting (New York streets & Easter Parade) to her range of skills\, although she was not overly influenced by the trends of contemporary American photography. Nelly’s died in Athens\, after a lifetime of passionate dedication to her art. She left a body of work\, which remains exemplary from both an artistic and a technical standpoint; it represents a valuable legacy to the photographers of today. \nFor a Zoom link for this lecture\, please RSVP: hellenic@humnet.ucla.edu

SUMMARY:Lecture: Finding Atlantis
DESCRIPTION:This talk by Professor Kathryn Morgan\, Chair of the UCLA Department of Classics\, explores the origins and some of the development of the myth of the lost island of Atlantis\, from Plato to contemporary video games. This legend has fascinated its audiences since it first appeared in the works of the philosopher Plato\, and like all good myths it reflects the concerns of the society that created it. It is a story about the kind of society that want to live in\, about the effect upon civilizations of imperial ambition\, about how we deal with the sea as a medium for economic and cultural exchange. In the hands of modern geographers\, explorers\, and other scholars\, the myth has become something different: a symbol of the mysterious past that we can never quite control. \nYou must RSPV at hellenic@humnet.ucla.edu to be included in this event. We welcome attendance by students\, community members\, and your family members outside of Los Angeles.

SUMMARY:"When Tomatoes Met Wagner\," directed by Marianna Economou
DESCRIPTION:Elias\, a small farming village in central Greece\, is dying out. But two cousins team up with the village grannies to cultivate the tomato seeds they have kept for hundreds of years. With a little help from Wagner’s music –which they use to help their tomatoes grow– the team succeeds to export little jars with organic tomato recipes across the world. The film follows the protagonists of this unlikely quest\, as they struggle to survive and make their dream come true. Humorous and bittersweet\, this is a story about the importance of reinventing oneself in times of crisis and the power of human relationships.
