Zetta Antsakli

Zetta Antsakli was born in Athens. She studied and worked as translator in French, English, and Italian while completing her studies in Photography alongside Andreas Smaragdis and Platon Rivellis.

She first published a collection of her photographs “Sight and Site” Kastaniotis Editions S.A. which she presented at the Benaki Museum, the Byzantine Museum in Thessaloniki and The Reading Society in Corfu.”A meander in a game of forms, images, colours and shadows.A journey that starts in the eyes of a woman in Cappadocian Nevsehir and comes to an end in Italian Milan, where some perhaps unconfessed love tries to acquire substance through hasty roadside graffiti"

She has exhibited her work, in solo and group exhibitions in Greece and abroad. She participated in the MIA MILAN IMAGE ART FAIR with great success, this being the first International Art fair devoted to Photography, two times.There was a great interest from the public, the collectors and buyers, the Italian press and the social media.Her artwork belongs to private collectors in Europe and USA.

She participated in the group exhibition “Travelling Around The Earth” organized by the Goulandris Museum of Natural History in Athens Greece. Her artwork, an installation of 16 photos, with the title “HELLAS” belongs at the permanent collection of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the El.Venizelos, Athens Airport, while recently the artwork under the title “together as one" HELLAS-USA” belongs to the Athens College collection.

‘’The way the artist approaches the subject and the way it is expressed are simultaneously discreet and powerful. Her glance isn’t attracted by the obvious, neither by the picturesque, but always leads from the ‘golden part’ of her picture. The shape and subject are in such balance with each other that they invite the viewer to participate in the picture.’’
