The walking/site-specific artistic experience “Before the After 2°” has been in preparation since October 2022. Its theme is the imprint of school life on individuals over the years, sparked by the “farewell” to the Old Elementary School of Tyros, a building of cultural and architectural significance, just before its renovation and change of use.
Members of the community with personal memories, current students from the area, and artists from various disciplines create contemporary art based on this shared theme.
The “School” steps outside its walls and moves into the open space. Memories of past school life are transformed into contemporary art through dance, visual arts, music, theater, and video. As visitors walk at their own pace in the natural environment, they gradually discover the various actions unfolding, experiencing something unique.
Through the theme of school memories, the experiences of the former students of the Old Elementary School of Tyros are recorded, while also connecting with the memories of current students to create a vision for the future. In this way, the school journey of the area is partially mapped, forming a bridge that unites past, present, and future.
Under the auspices of the Municipality of South Kynouria.
