On Saturday, 21 June 2025, from 12:00 to 13:00 Athens time (with a repeat on Sunday, 22 June at 04:00), the radio show “Our Town” welcomes one of Greece’s most important visual artists, Sotiris Sorogas, for a rare radio conversation.
In this special broadcast, Sorogas reflects on his distinguished career in Greece and abroad, and the renowned galleries that have hosted his work. He speaks about his beloved materials — sound, light, and stone — and the places that have shaped his life and art: Epirus and Lavrio.
He shares memories of his cherished mentors, fellow artists, and friends, as well as his unique connection with George Seferis. The discussion touches on themes such as politics, absoluteness, freedom, consolation, and the power of language as a pillar of Greek culture. Listeners will also hear excerpts from what he calls the “dialogues of his life.” As he poignantly states:
“Spiritual responsibility compels one to a style that is modest and humble.”
