"Umbrellas"
Under the Umbrellas with the Rain and the Sun
The "Umbrellas" is an impressive work of art by the famous sculptor Giorgios Zongolopoulos (1903-2004).It was exhibited for the first time in 1993 at the 46th Biennale in Italy where it received excellent reviews.That year the Umbrellas will win the 1st prize at the European competition held for the placement of artworks in the building of the Council of Ministers of the European Union in Brussels and will be placed at the Cour d'Honneur of the building.
In 1997, when Thessaloniki became the Cultural Capital of Europe,the "Umbrellas" were placed on the seafront near the Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art.
It's a sculpture with adaptability to times and moments following the moods of the weather.When it is raining the umbrellas become a nice shelter,when it is foggy they make their mark on the horizon and when it is sunny they play with the bright sun rays.
It is 13 metres high and made of stainless steel.
