A new art exhibition uniting 40 exceptional artists and designers, including 19 Greek artists, 10 American, and 11 international voices, is set to open in New York City on September 10, under the auspices of the Consul General of Greece.
Elements in Harmony will be a landmark event celebrating the universal language of art, blending cultural traditions, sustainable practices, and contemporary innovation, as well as inaugurating A.R.T—Art, Revolution & Trends, founded by entrepreneur and cultural connector Maria Kosmidou.
“We envision a world where sustainability, technique and storytelling unite creators from different continents and traditions,” Maria Kosmidou explains. “Through curated exhibitions that combine visual arts, sustainable fashion, and cultural tradition, our mission is to support each other, honor our heritage, and create a space where art becomes our common language.”
19 Greek artists featured
Produced by Maria Kosmidou LLC and curated by Dr. Sozita Goudouna, founder of the non-profit organization Greece in USA and Opening Gallery, Elements in Harmony will run through September 30 at the iconic SoHo workshop and loft of Peter Reginato—one of America’s most celebrated sculptors and painters whose works are housed in the permanent collections of The Metropolitan Museum of Art and other major institutions.
Among the participants is Victoria Bartlett, who has collaborated with cultural icons such as David Bowie and Madonna. The grand opening will take place on September 10, and private viewings will run until the end of the month by appointment only.
“Extroversion is not just a choice; it is a necessity and a prospect,” says Kosmidou. “Through strategic partnerships, international visibility, and open platforms for creators, Greek creativity can inspire, unite, and leave a footprint that transcends geographical and cultural boundaries.”
A unique moment of extroversion for artists from Greece
The organizers point out that Greek artists and designers today are experiencing a unique moment of extroversion and creative osmosis with the international arena. “Greece has enormous talent, which often remains undiscovered due to limited opportunities abroad,” Kosmidou says.
“Through initiatives such as Elements in Harmony, we seek to open bridges between Greek creatives and the international community, highlight the uniqueness of their work, and create collaborations that transcend borders and limitations,” the exhibition organizer stresses. “By collaborating with artists and designers from other cultures, we become better ourselves; art sees more than our eyes, speaks to the soul and differently to each of us, teaching us to focus on what unites us, to accept differences, and to love people.”
Following in 2025 and 2026 will be additional curated exhibitions that combine visual arts, sustainable fashion, and cultural tradition, along with pop-up shows in major metropolises worldwide, and collaborations with international artists and brands on joint collections and creative synergies.
Maria Kosmidou also aspires to present Elements in Harmony in Greece and then return to the US before it moves on to Europe and other continents. “Each project aims to highlight the voice of Greek creators, promote their art beyond borders, and strengthen Greece’s position as a center of innovation, quality, and cultural exchange on the world map,” she says enthusiastically.
