Jannis Kounellis, born in 1936 in Piraeus, and living in Rome since 1956, is one of the most influential proponent of radical and revolutionary art of the 60s. Since 1956, he has been active in Italy, instantly becoming recognized and praised all over the world.

Classical in form, non-traditional in her choice of material, her body of work is centred around the series of "Banquets", in which the artist composes the multi-element and eatable installation, later inviting the audience to participate the feast. In other pieces, she often employs non-sculptural materials, such as ice, butter or champagne, to construct an artwork.

Currently the artist lives and works in
