Larry Amponsah

Multi-media artist Larry Amponsah collects photos, archival images, conversations, and reflections from diverse cultures and makes collages out of them. These collages combine a variety of creative strategies, from physical collage and painting to digital manipulation and new printing techniques. In his artworks, floral environments can be depicted that enrich the narratives and the psychological landscape of the work’s protagonist. In so doing, Amponsah aims to highlight, re-interrogate, and transcend questions of identity, the politics of representation, and systems of power. ...

The Breeder gallery was formed organically from The Breeder magazine due to the need of Athenian artists to promote international dialogue. Over the last 20 years The Breeder has been a pioneer in the development of the contemporary art scene in Athens. They show art that is relevant to our times and promote a select group of Greek artists on the global arena while also showing cutting edge international artists. The Breeder serves as a link that connects cultures and supports a deeper exchange. They support their community by providing an active platform for the exchange of ideas and ideals. In 2019 they introduced The Breeder Open Studio initiative, where the gallery is available to invited artists prior to their show. Working onsite the artists have the opportunity to engage with the audience in more substantial ways. Invited artists of the Breeder Open studio, include Ariana Papademetropoulos, Chioma Ebinama, Joy Labinjo, Ekene Stanley Emecheta, Victor Ubah, Barry Yusufu and Adegboyega Adesina. ...
