Yorgos Lanthimos, the Greek filmmaker whose unsettling visions have won him Academy Awards and global acclaim, is now turning gallery walls into cinematic frames. Since March 7, thousands of visitors have filed through the Onassis Stegi cultural center in Athens for ‘Photographs’ – the largest exhibition of Lanthimos’ photographic work ever mounted by a cultural institution. The show runs through May 17. Known for constructing fantastical worlds and probing the contradictions of human relationships in films like ‘Poor Things’ and ‘The Favourite,’ Lanthimos here shifts his gaze to a different medium. The photographs carry his unmistakable directorial eye: fleeting moments arrested in stillness, ordinary scenes rendered strange, the transient made permanent. For audiences, the exhibition offers something rare – an encounter with the visual language of one of cinema’s most singular voices, unmediated by narrative or screen. A cinematic blink, frozen into immortality. [Margarita Nikitaki/AMNA/Onassis Foundation]
