The \u201cblack days\u201d of the Ottoman Empire are already somewhat overlooked in Greek history; as I have just realized thanks to Istos Publications’ book Rum Be Rum Stay, Greek contemporary artists make philosophical references to Hellenic culture, which they consider to be the real dates, because they do not have as deep a commitment to Byzantium as we thought.<\/span>blac<\/span>k day<\/span>s\u201d of the O<\/span>tto<\/span>man Empi<\/span>re are alrea<\/span>dy somewh<\/span>at overlo<\/span>oked<\/span> in Greek histo<\/span>ry; <\/span>a<\/span>s I<\/span> have just re<\/span>alized<\/span> thanks <\/span>to Istos P<\/span>ublica<\/span>tions’ book Rum <\/span>Be Rum Stay,<\/span> Greek co<\/span>ntemporary arti<\/span>sts make philosoph<\/span>i<\/span>tion.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We traveled<\/span> with art<\/span>,<\/span> let<\/span>‘s return with designer<\/span> souvenirs<\/span>!<\/span><\/h4>\n

After<\/span> visiting<\/span> so<\/span> many art<\/span> spaces<\/span>, it<\/span> is a<\/span> must<\/span> to return<\/span> with a design<\/span> object<\/span> that will remind<\/span> us of the<\/span> city<\/span>!<\/span> In the past<\/span>, we were less<\/span> mobile<\/span> and<\/span> when we returned home<\/span>, especially<\/span> from<\/span> abroad<\/span>, we would take out<\/span> a pile<\/span> of unnecessary<\/span> souvenirs<\/span> from the bag<\/span>.<\/span>fter visiting so many art spaces, it is <\/span>a must to return with a design object that will remind us of the city! In the past, we were less mobile and when we returned home, especially from abroad, we would t<\/span>ake out a pile of unnecessary souvenirs from the bag. The top of the refrigerators are magnets, if the shelves are full of enough meaningless gifts, let’s take you to the design gift shops, which are one of the most beautiful things Athens offers to tourists… If<\/span> you<\/span> want<\/span> to<\/span> take<\/span> home<\/span> objects<\/span> that are<\/span> not<\/span> those<\/span> blue<\/span> magnets<\/span> but are cleverly<\/span> designed<\/span>,<\/span> have funny jokes, give<\/span> short<\/span> cultural<\/span> references<\/span> and that you won’t regret<\/span> buying later<\/span>, these<\/span> shops<\/span> are for you!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

When I visited, a famous Greek designer had brought in his new season clothes. After<\/span> a<\/span> bit<\/span> of chat<\/span>, he mentioned<\/span> that he had a big<\/span> shop<\/span> in<\/span> Kolonaki<\/span> (<\/span>corresponding<\/span> to<\/span> Ni\u015fanta\u015f\u0131<\/span> in Turkey)<\/span> and<\/span> that he brought<\/span> his designs<\/span> to this<\/span> shop so that tourists<\/span> could<\/span> get to know<\/span> Greek<\/span> design.<\/span> Address<\/span>:<\/span> 100<\/span>, Adriannou St.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
