Description
Documenta, qui se tient tous les cinq ans à Kassel (Allemagne), est considérée comme l'exposition d'art contemporain la plus importante et influente au monde. L'édition 14 en 2017 avait fait d'Athènes une co-capitale artistique, exposant dans de nombreux sites emblématiques de la ville. Si ce format se répète pour Documenta 16 (2027), Athènes pourrait à nouveau accueillir des centaines d'œuvres majeures, poursuivant un dialogue unique entre l'art contemporain et la Grèce antique. Dates à confirmer.
